i'm torn. cool cleveland has listed two events i want to go to equally badly tonight. my choices are:

1. Fifteen Cleveland women are profiled in a documentary film for TV Slovenia. 100% Slovenian: Stories of Slovenian Women in America makes its Cle debut at the Euclid Library on Thu 6/19. C-town is the country's Slovenian capital; the film was well-received in recent European festivals, and nominated for a Slovenian "Emmy" award. Call 496-4646 or visit http://www.euclidlibrary.org/Public/home.asp.
 

i'm greatly interested in this doc (i'm all slovenian), and don't know when i'd get the chance to see it again. plus, my grandpa, a lifelong euclid resident, might even want to go.

or

2. HOT Coventry Street Arts Fair It's a party like no other Thu 6/19 from 6 - 9PM, featuring a spectacular slate of arts and culture events. Check out the band Vital Mines, laugh with the Something Dada comedy troupe, bop with the Cleveland Jazz Project and hear the iconic Harvey Pekar at Mac’s Backs! The Cleveland Museum of Art will be running family art projects during the evening and Coventry merchants will hold their traditional "Sidewalk Sale." Grab some nosh from Coventry restaurants and check out local artists, farmers, and vendors. Spend Your Summers at the Coventry Street Arts Fairs! http://www.coventryvillage.org/events.html.
