At her Room Service boutique, Danielle DeBoe's carefully curated selection of locally made products shares the shelves with contemporary designs from Paris, New York and other internationally recognized style capitals. DeBoe's popular Made in the 216 events have united her critical eye for style and design with some of our region's most gifted artisans. The events have introduced thousands of northeast Ohioans to the great talents creating one-of-a-kind items in Cleveland and surrounding neighborhoods.
This year's special Made in the 216 Holiday Shoppe features a wide breadth of unique items, from men's and women’s apparel, jewelry, T-shirts, totes and personal accessories, to stationary, photography, screen-prints, household goods and music. The more than 50 Cleveland-based featured artists represent all levels of entrepreneurship, from the craft circuit, to etsy shops, to international sales, yet all share a commitment to growing their businesses in Cleveland. DeBoe and OhioAuthority.com believe the artists' efforts are to be celebrated.

Sunday: 12-5 pm/ Monday-Wednesday: CLOSED / Thursday: 4-9 pm / Friday: 4-9 pm / Saturday: 11-9 pm
