🌱 New Creativity Center Opens + School Bus Crash On I-75

Hello, Cincinnati! I'm back in your inbox this morning with your new edition of the Cincinnati Daily. Here are all the things you need to know about what's happening in town today.

But first, today's weather:

Mainly cloudy, showers around. High: 68 Low: 54.

📢 I’m looking for business owners and marketers in Cincinnati who want to build awareness, connect with customers and increase sales.

I have a limited number of sponsorships available to introduce our Cincinnati Daily readers to local businesses they need to know about. If that’s you, then I invite you to learn more and secure your spot now.

Here are the top three stories in Cincinnati today:

1. After two years of construction, the Cincinnati Contemporary Arts Center has opened its new Creativity Center. The new center is 10,000 square feet and offers a studio space that can accommodate up to 80 students at a time. Local artists will be at the center from time to time to interact with guests. (WCPO 9 Cincinnati)
2. The Ohio State Highway Patrol responded to a crash on I-75 on Friday evening near Cincinnati. The crash involved three school buses that were transporting a high school football team. Eight individuals were transported to local hospitals for treatment. No serious injuries occurred during the crash. (WANE)
3. A Hamilton County judge has set a $100,000 bond for a woman accused of murdering her five-month-old daughter. Rebecca King allegedly killed Lily Johnson on Oct. 8 by blunt impact. She is being held at the Hamilton County Justice Center. Law enforcement is still investigating the death. (FOX19)

Patch deal of the day:

Good knives make all the difference in the kitchen, but you don’t need to overpay for them. Seido Japanese knives are made with strong high-carbon stainless steel (high-carbon knives are more durable and usually more expensive) and have an acute 15-degree angle for a noticeably sharper cutting face (most Western-style knives have edge angles of 25 degrees). For a limited time, Patch readers can get a 5-piece Seido Japanese master knife set for 71 percent off. At just under $70, this chef-quality set is perfect for any home cook and would also make a great gift for the holidays.
