ArtsNow Celebrates 10 Years
We are so grateful for the amazing support and love we have received over the past decade of ArtsNow. We look forward to continuing growing with our artists, community, and more the next decade to come.
Congratulations on your 10th year anniversary. You have truly made a difference in our community, making the Arts Thrive in Summit County! Through your outstanding work, you have elevated our program by expanding our reach in our community. ArtsNow gives us a platform to advertise our events, funding to bring music to new places, and the opportunity to bring thousands of people together through music.

So many people have new and wonderful memories and experiences because of those investing time and money into ArtsNow. Thank you for allowing the Village of Lakemore to benefit! ArtsNow awarded an amazing grant to our community to afford a summer youth program.
The Village of Lakemore was able to host fun and educational workshops for the kids of our community. Art, science, nature, along with some sports and water fun, our kids were blessed to experience things they would never be able.

The partnership between Collide and ArtsNow has been pivotal in our success. From professional development opportunities, guidance, connections with other arts organizations, information on best practices, support, and more, we have grown because of our relationship. Nicole has been a true ally and advocate, and we could not ask for two nicer and more informed people to help us. We are so fortunate to have such an outstanding organization in our community.
Thank you for being a true leader in our sector. ArtsNow has put Summit County far above the rest. We have made tremendous strides due to your hard work, insight, and leadership. Thank you, Nicole. We are better for knowing you.

Over the past ten years, ArtsNow has not only increased the visibility of local artists and organizations but also provided the structure and advocacy needed to sustain that growth.
For Collide Cuyahoga Falls (going into year 9), ArtsNow’s partnership gave us a sense of legitimacy and credibility within the arts and culture sector—validating our vision, strengthening our connections, and helping to elevate the arts in Cuyahoga Falls

ArtsNow has connected us with community partners and helped our organization find office space. Additionally, we received an ArtsForward grant which allowed us to provide additional community programming.
Brava to Nicole and the staff!

Nicole Mullet was my mentor when I first began Growing MINDZ. She listened to what I wanted and how I wanted to structure my program and she believed in me even when I second-guessed myself. ArtsNow connected me with so many opportunities in the Arts world including holding a talent show at the Civic Theatre. ArtsNow allowed the children in Growing MIndz to unlock hidden gems that are right in our backyard.
Thank you Nicole and ArtsNow for being a pillar to Artists and Entrepreneurs like myself!
