Join The Diversity Center for an Evening at the Cozad-Bates House Interpretive Center

The Cozad-Bates House is one of Cleveland’s oldest remaining homes and a treasured landmark in University Circle. Having played a role in the Underground Railroad and the abolitionist movement, the museum offers a unique window into Cleveland’s history and the people who have shaped it.

The program will feature a guided tour of the museum led by Greg Deegan of the Teaching Cleveland Institute, followed by an engaging discussion exploring Cleveland’s past, reflecting on its present, and considering how our shared history can help shape a more inclusive future.

Whether you’re passionate about Cleveland’s history, committed to advancing belonging, or simply looking to build new relationships with others who care deeply about our community, this promises to be an inspiring evening.

Proceeds from the evening will benefit The Diversity Center of Northeast Ohio’s educational programs and community initiatives that foster inclusion, understanding, and belonging throughout our region.
