Not even a week has passed since we hosted our 8th annual Mardi Gras Ball, and we are already preparing for the wave of events that are sure to energize and educate you (and fill your calendar). Here’s a glimpse at what's coming up this week and in the coming weeks!
1. MYCincinnati Spring Concerts March 12th & 13th
The MYCincinnati Youth Orchestra will have its first concerts of the year at ARCO (3301 Price Avenue) on Wednesday, March 12th and Thursday, March 13th at 6pm!

2. Glenway & Iliff Project Ribbon Cutting March 13th
Join 8K and Price Hill Will for a very special Ribbon Cutting event at 11am Thursday, March 13th! We will be celebrating the completion of 4024 Glenway Avenue in West Price Hill and welcoming its first tenants - Tienda Los 3 Amigos and Custom Cuts Barbershop - to the space! Refreshments will be from Tienda Los 3 Amigos.
The Glenway & Iliff Project (4024-26 Glenway Avenue) is an exciting example of a community-led development that retains existing businesses within the development plan, while also adding much-needed new units to our depleted housing stock. Click HERE to read more about it!

4. Alice in the Hundred Acre Wood March 22nd
Join Arts@ARCO and Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park for FREE fun as Alice, the best detective in Wonderland, hunts for clues in a crime caper mystery featuring some of childhood’s favorite characters.
When Winnie the Pooh hires Alice to solve the case of Christopher Robin's kidnapping, she arrives in the Hundred Acre Wood to find a very anxious Piglet, a terribly unfocused Tigger and a very Eeoyre-y Eeoyre. Will Alice find the culprit? Will she be able to bring Christopher Robin home? This literary mashup will have audiences laughing as they follow clues and help Alice crack the case!
This performance is recommended for ages 5 and up. Free parking, refreshments, and arts & crafts will be provided. We will also have our stimulating Sensory Space open during the event. Click HERE to RSVP!
5. Lead Poisoning Prevention Workshop March 26th
Learn how to protect your family from Lead Poisoning during this 2-hour Do It Yourself Darlin workshop at Casa Colina (821 Purcell Avenue) at 6pm March 26th. According to the Environmental Protection Agency,
Lead-based paint is still present in millions of homes, normally under layers of newer paint...Deteriorating lead-based paint (peeling, chipping, chalking, cracking, damaged, or damp) is a hazard and needs immediate attention.
Young children are particularly susceptible to lead poisoning, and scientists are still uncovering the long lasting effects of lead poisoning in children. In this workshop, an EPA-Certified Lead Risk Assessor Josie Watson will walk us through the steps needed to protect your family and small children from lead poisoning while renovating your older home.
This workshop is available on a "pay-what-you-can" basis. Click HERE to RSVP!
