Cleveland chapter of AIGA, a membership-based organization for designers.

Art Farm’s mission is to support artistic vision, which may be impractical, obscure, and independent of commercial recognition—where failing is no less welcomed than succeeding. To offer artists, writers, performers, and others: studios, time, and resources for pursuing their range of expression, for experimenting, for developing projects, but most of all, for distilling the promise and potential of their creative enterprise, while working and living in a rural environment. They offer an artist and writer residency.

The Artists Archives of the Western Reserve preserves the art and artistic legacies of premiere Ohio artists. We store their art, have exhibitions for both community and member/archived artists, conduct oral histories, create publications of art, publicize/promote shows and accomplishments of member artists, provide networking opportunities. There are also educational opportunities available through workshops and forums.
