CreativeOhio energizes and organizes the state’s arts and creative sector in advocating for public policies and public investment in Ohio’s creative economy at the local, state, and federal levels.
Our members believe creatives and creativity are essential to the backbone of innovation, prosperity, and strong communities across Ohio. Through our Living Advocacy initiatives we demonstrate that public funding for the arts and creative industry is a high-return investment that benefits all Ohioans.
