Heights Arts is a nonprofit community arts organization in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. Founded in 2000, Heights Arts cultivates a strong, diverse, and collaborative arts community by inspiring people of all ages to engage in the arts; supporting the arts through education; providing exhibition and performance opportunities; and fostering public appreciation for the arts.

The community’s proximity to University Circle, home to cultural destinations in Cleveland which include the Cleveland Museum of Art and Severance Hall, has created a place rich with artists, performers, art educators, administrators and others who make their livelihood in the performing or visual arts.

We contribute to the region’s artistic vitality by showing regional artists at Heights Arts Gallery, facilitating public art and design projects, presenting chamber music and other concerts in intimate settings, nominating and supporting the Cleveland Heights Poet Laureate, and having classes and workshops in the arts. As a multidisciplinary arts organization, we tap into the potential of our creative residents to enrich community life.
