Want your business to be the top-listed Event Planning Service?
True story: The idea to re-imagine the historic Clifton School building as a cultural arts center originated in 2004, a wholly unanticipated outcome of the Cincinnati Public Schools’ $1 billon Master Plan to design schools as Community Learning Centers.
As CPS would be vacating the century-old building, the community was asked if it was interested in leasing it to create an arts center. Sure, what could go wrong, right? And with that, a small core of believers grew into a vast group of residents, volunteers, activists and community leaders – from Clifton, Uptown and across Cincinnati – who all came together to make it happen.
Today, after countless volunteer hours – and millions in donations, support, investment and improvements – CCAC celebrates a decade of growth as a collaborative, inclusive, multi-venue arts center for children, families, adults and seniors, as well as established and emerging artists, educators and art programmers. A community-created place where …
The Clifton School is itself a work of art, constructed in 1906 in the Beaux-Arts style with myriad architecturally significant and historic details, including original Rookwood water fountains, an ornate theater and its grand Great Hall. Indeed, its majestic clock tower, among the most recognizable features in Clifton, marks the geographic center of one of Cincinnati’s most treasured and historic communities.
The Clifton Cultural Arts Center will be relocating from our current home at 3711 Clifton Avenue in late summer 2018. CCAC’s original home, the 53,000 sq. ft., 1906 Clifton Elementary School building, is slated to become a new CPS neighborhood school, serving children from Clifton, CUF and Spring Grove Village (also known as Clifton Area Neighborhood School, or CANS). CCAC board, staff and volunteers are currently in the search process for a new home to carry CCAC’s mission and vision into the future.
