Heights Arts Public Art Murals begin to take Shape in Cedar-Lee Arts District
The public art is transforming the Cedar Lee Arts and Coventry Business 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.
These nine artists were chosen to create new public art in Summer 2026.

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.
