The arts offer huge benefits for kids–from enhanced creativity to increased school engagement to social-emotional wellness–but we know that arts access is not equitable for everyone.
That’s why Kennedy Heights Arts Center remains committed that 100 percent of our programs are accessible to everyone regardless of income. That’s a promise. ALL of our arts education programs are FREE or offered on a sliding scale basis, allowing families to pay only what they can afford.
Generous support from donors like you allows KHAC to provide enriching arts experiences for more than 2,500 diverse youth annually including art classes, summer camps, Cincinnati Jazz Academy, arts integration in public school classrooms, Cr8 Club after-school program, Teen Artists for Change, Tellus Zine, and more.
Ensure the arts are accessible to ALL kids with your donation to the Kennedy Heights Arts Center Scholarship Fund today.
Kennedy Heights Arts Center is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, EIN #45-01477. Your contribution is tax-deductible to the extent of the law.
NOTE: PayPal is our online payment processor. You may pay by Credit Card; you do not need to have a PayPal account.
