What is arts advocacy, and how can we use it to strengthen Cleveland’s creative economy?

Attend a dialogue over lunch with Assembly for the Arts on March 26, 2025 at 11:30 to talk about exactly that.

Arts advocacy takes many forms. For some, it means securing more public and private funding for artists and cultural institutions. For others, it means using the power of creativity to drive community action and shape policies.

Join Assembly for the Arts on March 26 from 11:30 AM – 1:00 PM for an interactive conversation about the role of advocacy in the arts. This will be a discussion with you, artists, cultural leaders, and policy advocates to explore different approaches and share strategies.

It is governed by a volunteer board with a strong commitment to diversity and inclusion. Almost 70% of Assembly’s 26 board members are women, and almost 60% are Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC). Assembly by design operates in close partnership with Cuyahoga Arts & Culture, a government agency and Assembly for Action, a 501(c)4 political action nonprofit to serve the entire creative sector.
