Cleveland · Lava Room

Cleveland

Ohio

The talent caught us by surprise.

On May 18, 2024, Something Dope came from Los Angeles to the Lava Room in Cleveland so artists could play their music, get real feedback, and network. The goal was a bridge between Cleveland and Los Angeles.

The room was full of talent that caught us by surprise. Cleveland was missing a supportive artist community, and that is exactly where we came in: connecting likeminded creatives and leaving the city with something to build on.

First Cleveland event: May 2024
The venue: Lava Room
The bridge we built: LA to CLE
