Helping artists dream bigger.

Every day, artists are investing in the future of Cuyahoga County. They push boundaries, provoke thought and make valued contributions to our vibrant community. CPAC's Creative Workforce Fellowship invests directly in the future of these artists. Made possible through a grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture, the Fellowship is designed to strengthen the voices of 20 outstanding artists each year. 

For its one-year duration, every Fellowship offers a $20,000 financial award that can be used for any purpose that advances the Fellow's artistic work and professional development. The award also includes a one-year membership with the COSE Arts Network, a tuition waiver for CPAC's Artist as an Entrepreneur Institute (AEI) and is included in a catalogue of the artists' work.

In addition, two artists receive Seth Rosenberg Prizes, which includes a $2,500 grant for supplies and equipment, a COSE Arts Network membership and tuition waiver for AEI. These artists would step into a Fellowship if one of the recommended Fellows were unable to accept the award.
