Heights Arts Announces Final Artists Chosen for 8 Public Art Projects

The public art will transform Coventry and Cedar Lee Arts Districts through a major initiative led by Heights Arts in partnership with local artists, business owners and district leaders, LAND studio, and the City of Cleveland Heights. This project will invest over $250,000 into the Cedar Lee and Coventry business districts, with the timing coinciding with several milestones including Heights Arts 25th Anniversary, the branding of the Cedar Lee Arts District, and the 100th Anniversary of both the Cedar Lee Theatre and Cleveland Heights High School.

Art is Everywhere

Whether murals on buildings, streetscape design and signage, or semi-permanent music installations, you’ve likely spotted a Public Art project of which Heights Arts has been a partner. Consistent with our mission, Public Art does more than enhance public spaces. It promotes engagement, stimulates the economy, defines community identity, and makes people smile.

Heights Arts has partnered with various organizations, planners, architects, and artists to create and install permanent and temporary public art over the past 25 years.
