ArtsWave Carts
Get a free, reliable and safe ride to and from your parking when visiting theaters in Over-the-Rhine.
The ArtsWave cart is a free, reliable and safe way to get a ride to and/or from your parking when visiting the four Theatre Row theaters in OTR: Cincinnati Shakespeare Company, Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati, Know Theatre of Cincinnati and The Children’s Theatre of Cincinnati.
Operated by GEST and funded by ArtsWave, the ArtsWave Carts make on demand pickups from area garages and continuous loops after your show.
How to use the ArtsWave Cart
Where do I park?
Park at one of these three locations to qualify for a pre-show pickup: Washington Park Garage, the Memorial Hall surface lot, or the Kroger Garage (107 E. Central Pkwy).
How will the cart pick me up?
GEST carts will make regular stops at each location, however, for guaranteed pickup, call 513-421-4378 once you’ve parked to request a ride. Carts will meet you on the street near your garage.
How do I get back to my car after the show?
After the show, you can wait next to the “ArtsWave Cart” curb sign outside of your theater for a return ride to any area parking lot, not just the three pre-park lots. Carts will continue to loop until everyone has been returned to their parking lot.
The ride is free, but driver tips are appreciated!
