Description
This
view
of the
garden
pond
of the
Yugoslav
Cultural
Garden
in
Cleveland
was
taken
by
I.T
.
Frary
. The
garden
consists
of a
circular
fountain
and
pool
in the
center
of a
paved
court
. At the
lower
level
is
a
natural
amphitheater
formed
by
trees
. The
photograph
is
2
"
x

(5.08

cm)
. The
Yugoslav
population
in
Cleveland
is
largely
represented
by
three
ethnic
groups
:
Croatians
,
Slovenes
, and
Serbs
.
Croatian
immigration
to
Cleveland
was
largely
due
to the
hostile
political
and
economic
conditions
under
Austria-Hungary
and
both
royal
and
Communist
Yugoslavia
.
Slovenes
, a
southern
Slavic
people
,
immigrated
to
Cleveland
to
find
work
,
initially
in the
steel
industry
.
Yugoslav
immigrants
were
largely
poor
peasants
and
political
refugees
.
Serbs
arrived
in
Cleveland
mainly
before
World
War
I
and
after
World
War
II
. The
group
consistently
maintained
a
sense
of
strong
ethnic
identity
and
did
not
quickly
assimilate
into
American
culture
. The
Cleveland
Cultural
Gardens
,
located
along
East
Boulevard
and
Martin
Luther
King
Jr
.
Boulevard
, are
landscaped
gardens
with
statuary
honoring
Cleveland's
ethnic
groups
.
During
the
dedication
of the
Shakespeare
Garden
in
1916
,
it
was
decided
that
similar
sites
should be
prepared
for
each
of the
city's
ethnic
communities
. The
first
of these
gardens
, the
Hebrew
garden
, was
established
in
1926
. On
May
9
,
1927
the
city
set
aside
areas
of
Rockefeller
Park
for
future
gardens
. The
Italian
,
German
,
Lithuanian
,
Slovak
, and
Ukrainian
gardens
were
established
in
1930
; the
Polish
,
Hungarian
,
Czech
, and
Yugoslav
gardens
in
1934
; and the
American
,
Russian
,
Irish
,
Greek
, and
Syrian
gardens
in
1938
.
Romanian
,
Estonian
,
Afro-American
,
Chinese
,
Finnish
, and
Indian
gardens
have
since
been
created
.
Planning
and
fundraising
for
each
garden
was
undertaken
within
the
ethnic
communities
,
while
the
Cleveland
Cultural
Garden
Federation
(established
in
1925)
oversaw
planning
and
coordinated
various
joint
programs
. The
photographs
were
taken
by
Ihna
Thayer
Frary
. The
Ihna
Thayer
Frary
Audiovisual
Collection
was
given
to the
Ohio
Historical
Society
by
Mr
.
Frary
in
two
sections
.
One
was in
March
of
1963
and the
remainder
in
May
of
1965
by his
sons
,
Dr
.
Spencer
G
. and
Allen
T
.
Frary
following
their
father's
death
.
I.T
.
Frary
(1873-1965)
was the
publicity
and
membership
secretary
for the
Museum
of
Art
in
Cleveland
,
Ohio
. He
taught
for
many
years
at the
Cleveland
Institute
of
Art
and
Western
Reserve
University's
School
of
Architecture
. He
did
much
research
of
Ohio
and
American
architecture
and was the
author
of
seven
major
works
and
numerous
scholarly
articles
on
architectural
and
art
history
.
One
of his
major
works
was
Early
Homes
of
Ohio
published
in
1936
.
