Announcement

News 5 is asking for stories from Cleveland and Northeast Ohio about the people and groups making our area “A Better Land.” Who better to highlight than you: the artists, the makers, the people who are working day jobs, making time for family, and still creating work that inspires, provokes, beautifies our lives and tells our stories.

Submit your story on News 5’s website (their form is embedded in the sidebar on the right).

VIBE Collective

Artist Spotlight

Based in Akron and just over a year old, VIBE Collective is passionately working to activate systems-level change for artists in Northeast Ohio. The community-based collective is comprised solely of working artists and activists, all volunteering their time to the cause of elevating the value of grassroots and marginalized artists in our region. We had the opportunity to talk with Amber Cullen and Nichole Epps, to learn more about VIBE’s philosophies and their dedication to artists. We’re excited to connect with our fellow arts advocate neighbors in Akron!
