Across the country, communities are increasingly turning to cultural planning to support and grow their creative economies. Whether a city is actively drafting its first vision or beginning to activate it, the process requires constant adaptation, collaboration, and shared learning.
This forum explores the practical tradeoffs, constraints, and successes of shaping local culture at every stage of development. Featured arts leaders will share insights from peer communities on how these ongoing planning efforts play out amid civic and economic realities—offering an open space to learn from peer communities, ask questions, and deepen shared understanding about what cultural planning can look like in practice, while reflecting on Cleveland’s evolving cultural landscape.

This session will be moderated by Jennifer Coleman, Program Director of Creative Culture and Art at The George Gund Foundation.

The event will be livestreamed for free. Virtual attendees can still participate in the event’s Q&A portion via The City Club’s messaging platform (details will be provided during the forum). Those who are interested in receiving a reminder before the event goes live can sign up here.
For those unable to attend or who would like to revisit the event, the panel discussion will be available via a recording after the live event.
The idea for this City Club event originated in June 2025 when Jeremy Johnson and Jennifer Coleman attended the Americans for the Arts Annual Convention in Cincinnati. During the conference, they attended a presentation by Rockford, Illinois, on the city’s recent cultural planning process and were impressed by the work being done there. Representatives from Philadelphia were also in attendance, and after the session, Jeremy and Jennifer engaged them in a lengthy conversation about Philadelphia’s own cultural planning efforts.
Inspired by these discussions, they felt it would be valuable to bring these communities to Cleveland to share their experiences and lessons learned. Akron was invited because of its proximity and because, despite being a smaller city than Cleveland, it has made remarkable progress in implementing its cultural plan. Pittsburgh was included as well, given its similarities to Cleveland in terms of size, history, and regional context, offering another relevant perspective on cultural planning and execution.
For Assembly, the past year has been a powerful period of deep research and national data gathering. This summer, we are proud to transition into a phase of broad civic collaboration. We’re sharing our findings to catalyze new ideas alongside artists, arts organizations, philanthropy, and public partners.
For example, we just completed a comparative study with SMU DataArts on national public funding models (which will be published on this website). Bringing in leaders from other cities allows us to build directly on that momentum. We’re looking at real-world examples of how peer communities navigate advocacy, funding, politics, artist empowerment, and economic development.
The City of Cleveland is a valued stakeholder and vital partner in conversations surrounding the future of our creative economy. However, this panel was independently conceived by Assembly to serve as an open, collaborative civic space building on our capacity as a convener and researcher.
That said, we are delighted that many partners, including representatives from the City of Cleveland, local artists, and philanthropists, are at the table as we explore insights from sister cities that might be relevant to our cultural landscape.
At its core, this is a learning panel and a vehicle for civic exploration. Having previously led a comprehensive cultural planning process in Newark, New Jersey (Newark Creates), Assembly’s President and CEO Jeremy Johnson recognizes the immense practical value of asking peer cities to share their direct experiences.
This forum brings together diverse sectors—artists, creative businesses, public officials, and philanthropists—to deepen our collective understanding, recognize what is working across the country, and anticipate challenges and opportunities ahead.

Films Exploring Creativity at CIFF 50
Art-Centric Films at the Cleveland International Film Festival
As the Cleveland International Film Festival marks its 50th year, Assembly for the Arts is proud to celebrate our longtime partners and friends at CIFF—an institution that has helped shape Northeast Ohio’s cultural landscape for half a century. CIFF is a gathering place for artists, audiences, and ideas, drawing thousands of residents and visitors into shared spaces of storytelling, dialogue, and discovery. Film, by its nature, is a collaborative art form—one that weaves together music, visual art, literature, performance, design, and technology—and CIFF’s anniversary lineup is a powerful reminder of how deeply cinema intersects with the broader creative ecosystem.
By amplifying diverse voices, supporting local and global artists, and activating theaters, neighborhoods, and conversations across the region, CIFF continues to demonstrate how the arts strengthen community, fuel connection, and contribute to a vibrant creative economy in Greater Cleveland.
Various films in this year’s festival lineup highlight how film connects to and elevates other artistic practices—from music and visual art to literature, performance, and storytelling in all its forms. The films below offer just a glimpse into how creativity crosses disciplines at CIFF50. We encourage readers to explore these selections, attend screenings across the region, and discover the power of creativity within film.

WAGE Session for Artists and Groups that Hire Them
Assembly for the Arts Workbench Session: A Conversation with W.A.G.E.
Virtual Event: November 3, 2022, 4:30 – 6 p.m. ET
Assembly for the Arts is bringing artist and organizer, Lise Soskolne, to the Workbench Session on November 3, 2022.
During this virtual session, Lise, a co-founder and core organizer of Working Artists in the Greater Economy (W.A.G.E.) will introduce its primary programs, W.A.G.E. Certification and WAGENCY, and discuss W.A.G.E.’s broader effort to organize artists, institutions, and soon art workers, around a shared politics of labor. A group discussion will follow.
Since its founding in 2008, W.A.G.E.’s work has developed in service of a single achievable goal — regulating the payment of artist fees in the nonprofit sector. In the context of contemporary art, in which the unpaid labor of artists supports a multi billion-dollar industry, W.A.G.E.’s mission is to establish sustainable economic relationships between artists and the institutions that contract artists’ labor, and to introduce mechanisms for self-regulation into the art field that collectively bring about a more equitable distribution of its economy.
About Lise Soskolne
Lise Soskolne is an artist with over 15 years of work experience in arts presenting, administration and development at downtown New York City nonprofits. Since the late 1990s these have included Anthology Film Archives, Artists Space, Diapason Gallery for Sound, Meredith Monk/The House Foundation for the Arts, Participant Inc, and Roulette Intermedium. Along with many others, she is a co-founder of W.A.G.E. and has been its core organizer since 2012.
