Things to do in Cincinnati – January 2009
It’s the start of a New Year! January always brings the promise of fresh beginnings and new starts. I hope your 2008 was a good year, and your 2009 will be even better! I’ve taken some time off over the Holidays to clean the home office, tidy a drawer or two, and get re-organized. I promised the treadmill that we would spend a little more time together this year. Now that I’m organized and healthy….let’s go out!
Since January in Cincinnati can be a little gray and a little chilly, we need some nights out to look forward to. I have some great ideas for you to get out and keep busy. Hang in there! Spring is coming!
• Ryan McGuinness’s Aesthetic Comfort. Jan 6 – Feb. 15. Free! Cincinnati Art Museum. Contemporary graphic art installation in a black-lit environment. Looks cool!
• Central Ohio Based Comedy Show. January 9. Jackson St. Underground in the Know Theatre of Cincinnati. Three comics from Columbus and one from Cincinnati. Call 513/300-5669 for information

• Need more Monster Truck? Ok…then check out Monster Truck Nationals Tour. Jan 16 – 17. Bank of Kentucky Center, N. KY University. Get tickets here to a family-friendly show, including TreadHead Ted.
