Inclusion & Equity
As the cornerstone for the the arts across Summit County, ArtsNow plays a critical leadership role in advancing diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility (DEIA). Through our culture, connections and partnerships we encourage and support the ongoing efforts to educate the community and our workforce about DEIA, and create an environment where everyone feels welcome, included and treated with equality.
