Coming off the heels of a successful 2018 Community Campaign, ArtsWave is already distributing nearly $10 million in grants to local arts organizations.

During 2018's ArtsWave Days, brought to you by Macy's, participants in ArtsWave Rewards were offered the chance to win a grand prize: a Cincy Arts Staycation. Now, we have a winner!

To keep our arts funded at the current level, we need to raise $12,250,000. We need to raise the last million before our campaign ends on Thursday, April 26.

The ArtsWave Days event series wraps this weekend with Block Party, with support from Frisch's Big Boy, at the Taft Museum of Art.

The ArtsWave Community Campaign is the largest community arts fundraising campaign in the nation, but that hasn't always been the case — and our spot is not guaranteed.

The next two ArtsWave Days are Be Our Guest Tea Parties, sponsored by Dewey's Pizza, and Art Walks, with support from Frisch's Big Boy.

ArtsWave Days continues with a once-in-a-lifetime open house event at beautifully-renovated Music Hall and a family-friendly celebration of America's favorite pastime.

The focus turns to music in the next two ArtsWave Days, with the Beer Choir Games on February 24 and Jazz, Gospel & Arts on March 3.

ArtsWave Days will continue throughout the 12 weeks of the 2018 ArtsWave Community Campaign. Next up: I ♥ Arts and Date Night!

Cincinnati keeps making “best of” lists, and it's no accident. It takes hard work and dedication to the region, including our vibrant arts.

The 2018 ArtsWave Community Campaign is almost here. This year, it's bringing big new ideas to treasured traditions.
