“It is an honor to be the host location of The Mix this year. At TolHouse, we’re committed to local arts and the artist community, so there is true alignment between our missions. Many of our Members are either artists themselves or patrons of the arts, so this partnership between TolHouse and The Arts Commission is a perfect match-made,” Angela Lucas, TolHouse owner said in a statement.
Proceeds from the event will go to The Arts Commision’s various programs and activities including Artists Services, Young Artists at Work, Art Loop and Momentum Festival.
Sponsors for The Mix 2024 include Owens Corning, the Ohio Arts Council, the National Endowment for the Arts.
