A note from the creators of

Cincinnati Art Week

From October 3–10, 2026, Cincinnati Art Week (CAW) debuts as a new annual celebration of connection, culture, and creativity.

CAW is created by Cincy Nice in partnership with No Standing and community partners. More than a week of exhibitions, Cincinnati Art Week is an invitation to experience the city through the people making it.

It’s born from admiration for our artist community and a shared commitment to:

Honor who's already here and invest in their potential
Welcome bold ideas and the people who carry them
Create space for connection, collaboration, & what's next

We believe it's merrier with more, that good ideas like company, and the magic happens when we unite.

This is gonna be an ambitious year one (we’re gonna keep it real). We're intentionally focused on building a strong foundation to build upon.

We'd love your support as we bring Cincinnati Art Week to life. Whether you're a sponsor, artist, volunteer, business owner, neighbor, or simply curious, there's a place for you here. Please don't hesitate to get in touch, share an idea, or attend an upcoming event. We can’t wait to connect.

We're going for it. Let's go together and see what's possible.

To who’s already here!
And to what’s next!

With anticipation,

the Cincinnati Art Week team
