To know what’s happening in Cincinnati, look no further than the Cincinnati Arts Association, because whether you’re looking for theater, concerts, art or unique experiences, the Cincinnati Arts Association has their finger on the pulse of what’s happening in town.
The CAA was founded in 1992, and is not-for-profit organization that oversees the programming and management of two of the Tri-state’s finest performing arts venues – the Aronoff Center for the Arts and Music Hall – and is dedicated to supporting performing and visual arts. Each year, CAA presents a diverse schedule of events; serves upwards of 600,000 people in its venues; features the work of talented local, regional, and national artists in the Weston Art Gallery (located in the Aronoff Center); and supports the work of more than one dozen resident companies.
