ArtsWave Coronavirus Arts Hub
As ArtsWave puts it, in moments of crisis and stress, we can find courage, inspiration, hope and camaraderie in the arts — music, theater, dance, festivals, museums and more. Cincinnati arts are eager for you to resume participating in their activities as soon as it's safe to do so. In the meantime, ArtsWave has launched its Coronavirus Arts hub, hoping these mindful moments make a different kind of impact.
