Baseball fans from all over the country arrived in Cincinnati this weekend expecting major league sports stars and Hollywood celebrities, but they also got a taste of Cincinnati’s amazing local arts scene.

In partnership with the Community Organizing Committee (@BatterUpCincy) and Downtown Cincinnati, Inc., ArtsWave created a series of pop-up arts performances at CVG Airport and around Downtown.  Visitors enjoyed a wide variety of live music, dance, and theater performances – even made-to-order poetry. 

Special thanks to all the participating artists and organizations who provided All-Star visitors with an authentic and fun Cincinnati welcome: Cincinnati Baila, The  Children’s Theater of Cincinnati, Pones Inc., Young Professional’s Choral Collective, Elementz, McGing Irish Dancers, MY Cincinnati Youth Orchestra, Chase Public, ArtWorks, Cincinnati Boychoir, Queen City Sisters, Cincinnati Shakespeare Company, May Festival Chorus, Cultural Centre of India, Madcap Puppets, OTR Improv, CCM Prep and our own CincySings teams.
