About the event:

Join us on Friday, April 17, 2026, for the return of ArtWorks Live! at the Museum of Contemporary Art Cleveland (for it’s third year!), where we’re excited to showcase the incredible talent of our 20 apprentices. This year’s showcase invites our apprentices to draw inspiration from past ArtWorks sessions, reimagining and creating new work that bridges the past, present, and future of the arts.

The event features two dynamic co-ops: Mixed Media Visual Arts with CAL Teaching Artist, Kahzar Powell, and African Diasporic Dance with CAL Teaching Artist, Ron'Dale Simpson. Together, these co-ops will present a collaborative mix of visual art and dance performances, with some pieces incorporating spoken word, poetry, and other creative expressions.

As we gear up for the 20th anniversary of the ArtWorks program this summer, we’re excited to celebrate and reimagine the creativity that has been a hallmark of this program for two decades. This is an event that showcases the future of the arts through the eyes of youth.

ArtWorks Live! is free and open to all ages, with a suggested donation of $5–$10 per group to support youth arts programming at CAL. Parking is available in nearby garages.

Don't miss out on this incredible evening celebrating the next generation of artists!
