City Artwork & Photography

In Cleveland, there seems to be limitless number of artists creating interesting and beautiful artwork meant to adorn the walls of Cleveland homes and offices. Consider a piece designed by George Vlosich, owner of GV Artwork. Known for his Etch-A-Sketch creations, Vlosich is also a talented print designer with many available in his Lakewood store or online.

Cleveland Page Turners

Cleveland’s history is rich with intrigue, love and a whole host of interesting characters. Gray & Company Publishers is a local publishing house that focuses on Cleveland-centric books and authors. Consider The Comeback: LeBron, the Cavs & Cleveland by Terry Pluto, Cleveland Christmas Memories by Gail Ghetia Bellamy, Six Inches of Partly Cloudy by Dick Goddard, The Cleveland Orchestra Story by Donald Rosenburg and many more.

Popping Bottles

There’s no better way to capture a piece of Cleveland’s burgeoning beer, wine and spirits scene than with a nice bottle of an adult beverage this holiday season. Whether it’s a six-pack of Great Lakes Brewing Company Christmas Ale, a nice bottle of Debonne Vineyard’s signature vidal blanc icewine or 750mL of Cleveland Whiskey Christmas Bourbon, your Cleveland clients will be impressed.

How Sweet

Few things say “thank you” like chocolate. And, if you’re buying for a Cleveland client, consider purchasing some goodies from a Cleveland-based retailer. Cute Little Cake Shop, Sweet Designs Chocolatier, Olympia Candy and perennial favorite Malley’s Chocolates all offer corporate gift options.

Cleveland in a Box

Perhaps your Cleveland client isn’t located in the C-Town. When that’s the case, a great gift idea is “Cleveland in a Box.” Choose from a selection of pre-designed boxes or create your own box containing a myriad of Cleveland-themed products and merchandise ranging from Stadium Mustard and Campbell’s Popcorn to sports gifts and local chocolates. It’s the perfect way to reconnect with a Cleveland ex-pat. Check it out here.
