    Thank you for providing us with the opportunity to view the Serbian Garden event. The new St. Sava icon certainly merits a visit and the Njegos bust has been a favorite for years - he was known to some as “the Shakespeare of Serbia”. Many of us in the Cleveland area, and beyond, look forward to seeing new developments in all of the Gardens and will be stopping by after work in the early evenings and at weekends.

    What is this comment all about? I can’t understand what is the whole point. This was a very nice event and it was nice that even the President of Serbia whose garden is in question was present. Why would you write such horrible things?

    Horatio refers to two emails sent by someone with a political axe to grind. The offending comments were deleted, as this site is not the place for political rants and/or political vitriole. We respect the right of all citizens to express their views, but this is not the appropriate forum. We will post all comments regarding the Cultural Gardens and its events, including those that have reservations about current practice. We will only publish comments that are written in a reasonable fashion. We will have a new comment policy soon.
