Dance! Books! Storytellers!

It’s the AHA! Festival

Head to the Cleveland State University/Playhouse Square neighborhood June 7, 8 and 9 for an exclamation-worthy time at AHA! Arts and Humanities Alive!

Words, music, theater, dance and art all come together in Ohio’s first-ever festival of its kind. Storytellers (in person), famous authors (such as historian Jon Meacham), dancers and an astronomer are just a few of the folks who will entertain and inspire with fun and thought-provoking presentations.

A day-long outdoor Book Fair along Euclid Avenue from 14th to 17th streets kicks off the festival. Most events are free; others have nominal fees. The event is presented by Cleveland State University.
