Matters regarding the status of the Coventry PEACE Building.
The Library Board voted on May 16, 2022 to approve an expensive contract with Cresco to become the facility manager of the Coventry PEACE Building. While we are dissapointed, and deeply concerned about this decision, we were incredibly touched and moved by all the people that showed up in support of a different resolution, and spoke so meaningfully in support of our organizations. We will have more information soon, but in the meantime we encourage you to keep sharing your concerns and hold the board members accountable to the statements they made stating that they support our organizations and want to see us thrive. Join our email list to stay updated on the latest developments.
ARTFUL’s 5 Year Retrospective
What a journey we have been on! Looking back on the last five years we are reminded of the generosity and kindness of our community. We would not be where we are today without the support and love of the people of the Heights and our artists. Enjoy this retrospective that tells the story of where ARTFUL began, and where we are today.
Mission.
Establish and nurture affordable space that supports and educates artists in their mission to create, sell and display their art while making creativity and inspiration more accessible to the community at large.
24 art studios.
ARTFUL has 24 studio spaces that are available for rent to local artists. We are one of the only multi-tenant art spaces in greater Cleveland that is handicap-accessible, and our walls are constructed of a special antimicrobial material.
Large flex space.
In addition to our private studios, ARTFUL also features a large open work space. This space is available for our artists, classes and community gatherings. It can also be utilized by our artists for collaborations and large projects.
Classes and workshops.
Many ARTFUL artists teach small and private classes in their studios, while outside artist often make use of our Flex Space for teaching classes. Subjects include ceramics, home school art classes, painting and more!
We are located on the
upper level of the
Coventry P.E.A.C.E. Building.

Cleveland Heights, OH. 44118
The Coventry P.E.A.C.E. Building is the former Coventry Elementary School. It now houses multiple local nonprofits, which operate the building as a cooperative. We work hand-in-hand with these organizations on programming and special events. Many of our artists have either partnered, or utilized their services. We are proud to be serving at the Partner Level of the Coventry P.E.A.C.E. Campus project. P.E.A.C.E. stands for “People Enhancing A Community’s Environment”. Together with our neighbors in the building, we offer wonderful opportunities for our artists and local community members to continue to learn and grow.
