Helping doesn't have to cost anything.

Donations are what enables us to continue bringing world-class artists to Cincinnati.  If you can contribute anything to help our artists and our city, it is greatly appreciated.

But not everybody is in a position to donate; we get it, these are uncertain times.  However, subscribing to our email list doesn't cost anything and helps us understand just what type of art you are interested in by giving us feedback to the status updates we send you.  

We will never sell your information or give it to third parties - we simply wish to directly talk to art lovers in our city."

-Neil Dubin, President
