MLK Day and Cleveland’s pending visit
In just half an hour, the Rev. Jesse Jackson will give his speech to the gathered Bloomington community, seated at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater, watching from nearby City Hall Council Chambers or surfing via live broadcasts, including the H-T’s here.
Meanwhile, the Cleveland Orchestra, who was to perform a chamber concert tonight at IU, went on strike and has been in talks today with negotiators. There’s still a chance that an agreement will be reached and the group’s residency and big concert (Wednesday night at the IU Auditorium) will go on as planned. We’re still awaiting word on this and will update via Twitter and here (and also the news side) once we know more.
TUESDAY UPDATE: We learned this morning that all Cleveland Orchestra events at IU — aside from a couple talks/presentations (one today at 4 in the MAC) — have been cancelled.
