ArtsWave

We were thrilled and honored to receive a Catalyzing Impact Grant from ArtsWave in 2022 and 2024. These funds will help us produce and publish additional memoirs for use in public events and various settings around the region to bring greater awareness of the incredible stories of our immigrant and refugee neighbors. ArtsWave, a nonprofit serving the Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky Region, is the engine for the arts. Strong funding for the arts has allowed Cincinnati’s arts and culture scene to become a national draw and regional asset, creating a wave of economic and community benefits. Each year, ArtsWave supports the work of over 150 arts organizations, school outreach programs, festivals, community centers, neighborhoods, and various collaborations through impact-based grants. You can support efforts like these by making a gift to ArtsWave at artswave.org/give.
