With the help of tens of thousands of donors, ArtsWave fuels Cincinnati’s growth as a recognized leader, continuous innovator and the nation’s largest community campaign for the arts.
According to organizers, ArtsWave makes strategic investments to leverage the power of the arts to build a vibrant economy and a more connected community across Greater Cincinnati.
Goals of the organization include the following:

- Deepen Roots in the Region: The arts are critical for retaining a talented workforce, especially Young Professionals.
- Bridge Cultural Divides: The arts uniquely celebrate the diversity in our community.
- Enliven Neighborhoods: Community arts centers, galleries and public art build pride-of-place for residents
- Fuel Creativity & Learning: The arts can transform learning of core curriculum and essential 21st century skills sought by employers.
