ARTFUL friends - we are thinking about adding some Open Work Sessions to our offerings. This means we would make our large work room accessible for a few hours where you could bring in a project you are working on and have some space to work. Not only do we think this is helpful in terms of giving you space to work on creative projects, but it also offers you the opportunity to work with other people, socialize and get creative feedback, if you so choose. Please fill out our poll so we can better gauge your interest. If you have any other thoughts, ideas or questions - please include them in the comment section.
I am actually looking for a place to live and work to do more art work.
Great idea!
I live too far away, good idea though

How Arts Teachers Are Strengthening Students' Social-Emotional Muscles

Arts experiences—like singing in a choir or drawing graffiti—can open students to new ways of thinking, and offer teachers powerful opportunities to develop students’ social an...ARTFUL is hosting a Community Mural on Thursday evening at the Heights Music Hop 2019. Several years ago, Eve 'n' Stephen wrote a song about the Coventry P.E.A.C.E. Park & Playground. One of our artists, Sam Silverman, has a form of synesthesia. He listened to this song and interpreted it into a design which we have outlined and placed on a large canvas. We are inviting the community to join us at the PEACE Arch to fill it in (near the Coventry Branch of the Cleveland Heights-University Heights Public Library)! Upon completion, it will be hung on one of the main walls in our center room at the Coventry PEACE Campus Building (the former Coventry Elementary School).Coventry PEACE Campus & Heights Music Hop 2019
ARTFUL Artists & colleagues - University Heights City Hall (the City of University Heights) is hosting their very first Fall Fest & looking for artistic vendors. We'd LOVE to see some of you join in as vendors or local shoppers!#shoplocalThe Fall Fest vendor lineup is filling up, but there's still room for you.
University Heights will hold their inaugural Fall Fest on Sunday, October 6th from 1 to 5 pm. We'll have a concert from Jersey, the nation's best Springsteen tribute band. There will be activities for the kids. And there will be food trucks.
But we're also going to have artistic vendors, just like you've seen at great local events like Cleveland Flea, Solon Pop-Up in the Park, the Made in Ohio Festival, and Cleveland Bazaar.
If you're a vendor and you're interested, send an email to info@universityheights.com. You may also contact us via Messenger. We'd love to have you as part of our inaugural event.
A glimpse of some of the work created by ARTFUL Board Member, David King.HEDGE proudly presents Today’s Represented Artist: David King David is a contemporary artist who focuses on translating photographic images into lush paintings, created with oil paint, oil stick, chalk pastel and acrylic. King works with images of people, often his family members and those in historic photographs, and develops stories of the past through his paintings and drawings. He received an MFA from Kent State University, has taught high school art for 30 years at Chagrin Falls High School, and currently works in his studio in Cleveland Heights. King’s current series “Time Travel” depicts the slippery efforts of the mind’s eye to recapture time. It conveys a sense of urgency to preserve the disintegrated glances into our memories. The contemporary color palette represents the modern mind breathing life back into the image that was obscured by time’s patination. To view more of David’s work, check out hedgeartgallery.com and davidkingpainting.com Interested in something? Contact us today!
