![[CANCELED] OTR Arts Day at Music Hall](https://guide.artswave.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/guide.artswave.org/images/2019/08/missing-image-placeholder.jpg)
Join us at Music Hall for an open house, tours, workshops and performances that highlight the arts in Cincinnati’s Over-the-Rhine neighborhood.
As the community comes together now through the end of April to raise money for the arts, join us as we present OTR Arts Day, with support from Macy’s. At Music Hall, Cincinnati’s historic arts icon will have its doors open to the public from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Get a personal, hand-cut silhouette portrait, participate in a jam circle and take a behind-the-scenes tour! You can also enjoy performances from Bacchanal Steel Band, SCPA’s Harps, the May Festival, SCPA Jazz Enesmble, SCPA’s Baby Grands, YPCC, CSYO, Revolution Dance Theatre, Bach and Boombox, Cincinnati Opera and more!
In celebration of the 2020 ArtsWave Campaign and OTR Arts Day, register to take a FREE mini-tour of Music Hall thanks to the Friends of Music Hall. Explore one of Cincinnati’s favorite buildings, including the grandeur of Corbett Tower and the Gallery; the building architecture; and rooms rarely open to the public, like the Taft Suite, Music Library and Green Room. Be sure to bring your cell phone to dial-in to hear tour guides describe the history and architecture of Music Hall.
Tours depart every 15 minutes. Space is limited. All tours begin at the CSO Box Office on the south side of the first floor.
