Art and International Cooperation: The Bridges that Cleveland Helps Build

March 23, 2022

In a world where conflicts most often make our news headlines, the connections that art can create across countries and cultures are perhaps more vital than ever. These connections are multifaceted: sometimes art creates space for unique international partnerships to flourish, sometimes music transcends conflict in ways than no diplomatic effort could, and sometimes art simply brings people together across cultures. Artistic connectivity is very rich in large global cities. International connections through art are also happening here in Cleveland in ways that expand our horizons and enrich our cultural experience. The Cleveland Council on World Affairs will be hosting a panel discussion on the various ways and art forms that serve as bridges between Cleveland and wonderful places on the other side of the globe.

Speakers in this dynamic panel discussion include André Gremillet, President and CEO of The Cleveland Orchestra; Heather Lemonedes Brown, Chief Curator of The Cleveland Museum of Art; Yaron Kohlberg, President of Piano Cleveland; and international pianist, Bishara Haroni.

This program is a partnership between the Cleveland Council on World Affairs and Cleveland Piano. It will feature a brief musical performance by Duo Amal, formed by Israeli-Palestinian pianists Yaron Kohlberg and Bishara Haroni.
