Cincinnati

Cincinnati funds its arts institutions generously and its school art rooms unevenly. We work in the branch libraries of the neighborhoods where that gap is widest — free classes, taught weekly by a paid artist who lives there.

3 branch libraries
20 students per class, maximum
4–18 ages welcome, grouped by age
Admissions

First come, first served.

Classes cap at 20 students so every child gets real time with the artist. There is no application, no fee and no audition.

Fall term begins
Week of September 29

Every class is held inside a Cincinnati & Hamilton County Public Library branch. Term runs Sept 29 – June 12. Registration required.
