Theater (or is it theaTRE?) wins the week with season openers from Know to Playhouse to Cincinnati’s brilliant community theaters. Sing along with some Broadway showstoppers or settle in for the Bach B Minor. Great jazz, Lili Boulanger, a little poetry and a couple of good films round out your week.
The funding will support 46 arts organizations across Greater Cincinnati, helping pay for performances, exhibitions, arts education and other community programming.
The annual Better Together Fund program aims to provide regional organizations with flexibility to navigate a shifting funding landscape, whether by strengthening leadership, improving internal systems or investing in regional partnerships.
The funding supports a variety of initiatives, from arts and cultural programs to community spaces and inclusive youth activities, with grants ranging from $5,000 to $25,000.
Costumes ready? Jack-o-lanterns lit? Creepy sound effects oozing from the boxwoods? It’s Halloween time, and even if you’re not into trick-or-treating or costume parties, there are plenty of cultural events with a Halloween twist on the calendar this week.
The sixth season of their “Live from Music Hall” digital concert series features six full-orchestra performances streamed for free on the Orchestra’s YouTube channel.
We reached out this month to our area’s arts centers, locally focused organizations that bring cultural and artistic activities – and a sense of community – to their neighborhoods. We asked them to showcase their programs and amenities, as part of M&M’s continuing effort to recognize those in Greater Cincinnati’s nonprofit ecosystem.
As the Ol’ Lefthander might say, we’re rounding third and heading for home, as far as summer is concerned. Way too many kids are already back in school, and Labor Day weekend may be a bit more than a head-first slide away, but there’s plenty of summer fun ahead this week.
The 45 grant recipients represent a range of large, mid-size and small nonprofit organizations across the region. Grant sizes vary widely, typically ranging from $10,000 to over $1 million.
The votes are in, and this week’s lineup of Cincinnati arts and cultural events is officially a winner. Several outstanding classical-music concerts lead the way, but if you’re looking for theater productions, art exhibits or traditional holiday events, they’re on the list too.
