A Year of Community Building

A Year of Community Building / 2015 – 2016

Dear Friends, Never doubt the power of a mission-focused college to transform itself and its neighborhood.

Institutions that grow stronger decade after decade invariably demonstrate skill at balancing old and new. Their leaders vigilantly protect bedrock values, but stay nimble with changing times and conditions.

The past year at CIA exemplified the success of that strategy.

For 134 years, the college has produced serious, culture-changing artists, designers, educators and entrepreneurs. Its alumni, present and former faculty, and community supporters quite rightly take pride in their association with the college.

CIA has now enjoyed a full year of education and public programs on its new unified campus. The renovated and expanded George Gund Building, made possible by a successful capital campaign, contains some of the best of the old CIA: spaces where students are able to pursue the rigors of drawing, painting and design.

Room, too, has been made for teaching the art professional of tomorrow: design thinking, new media and technologies, and student/client partnerships. CIA doesn’t stop at teaching students to make better work. Its stellar faculty and external partners in the business community create opportunities for real-world learning. Our graduates leave CIA prepared to fulfill crucial roles as artists and designers, and to meet the rising demands of applying these disciplines in meaningful ways.

The most successful artists of tomorrow will be problem-solvers and community stakeholders. As an institution, CIA must do the same.

I congratulate Cynthia Prior Gascoigne, new Chair of the CIA Board of Directors, as she leads the way into the future. I know the college will meet the high standards set over more than a century of education in art and design.

unified campus during Prism in August 2015.

Our first year of operations in the unified campus at Cleveland Institute of Art brimmed with successes and milestones, reinforcing the college’s crucial role in the many communities to which it belongs.

We began 2015 –16 with Spectrum, a series of events that showcased the historic transformation of CIA and its campus. After nearly a decade of planning and fundraising around a consolidated campus, these events provided CIA the opportunity to celebrate and engage our extended family of students, faculty, alumni, strategic partners, corporate sponsors and our neighbors in University Circle and across Northeast Ohio. We will long remember Spectrum as an exhilarating moment in which we celebrated our history and transitioned into a future bright with promise.

Within this new physical learning environment, CIA students continued to achieve great things with their work, often in partnership with external organizations that included the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo, NASA, the Cleveland Museum of Natural History and Case Western Reserve University, to name a few.

One extraordinary project for our animation students included working with director Paul Schrader on the creation of storyboards for the feature film “Dog Eat Dog,” which debuted at the Cannes film festival in spring.

Under the auspices of CIA’s Creativity Works program, juniors in fine art and craft majors put their entrepreneurial skills to work in internships culminating in solo exhibitions and public art shows.

Partner organizations included the Shaker Lakes Nature Center, the LGBT Center at Case Western Reserve University, and Praxis Fiber Workshop.

I continue to take pride in the launch of full, four-year scholarships for students from the Cleveland Metropolitan School District. Erykah Townsend completed her first year at CIA, and is pursuing a double major in Painting and Sculpture + Expanded Media.

The Community Partnership for Arts and Culture named four of our faculty members — Sarah Kabot, Kevin Kautenberger, Kathy Buszkiewicz and Jimmy Kuehnle — Creative Workforce fellows. Cuyahoga County taxpayers fund these prestigious grants. CIA alumni Paul Sobota ’05, Christi Birchfield ’06, Darius Steward ’08 and Nathan Ward ’14 also received the CPAC grants.

As the school year closed, we bid goodbye to faculty members William Brouillard (Ceramics) and Richard Fiorelli (Foundation), and to library director Cristine Rom, all of whom retired after decades of dedication to CIA and its students. We miss them and wish them all the best.

We also acknowledge the passing of three volunteer leaders at CIA: Harvey Oppman, Chaillé Tullis and Mabel “Skip” Watts. You can read more about their service to the college on the last page of this report.

A Year of Community Building / 2015 – 2016

Creativity matters to our community Back in 2013, a New York Times headline blared “Culture Blooms in Cleveland” atop a story that trumpeted a “cultural renaissance” in University Circle.

Today, the arts in Cleveland have only become more vibrant, and the Cleveland Institute of Art has been present in virtually every facet of that expansion. Through its leaders, faculty, students and alumni, CIA engages at every level to be an effective collaborator and neighbor.

Introducing our new campus to the community

Our University Circle community

Starting in August 2015, CIA rolled out a suite of events that were designed to introduce our new unified campus to different audiences. At Prism, President and CEO Grafton Nunes presided over the last Convocation at Aitken Auditorium in the original George Gund Building on East Boulevard, and then led a parade to the Euclid Avenue unified campus. The ceremony presented a wonderful opportunity for faculty, staff, students and alumni to bear witness to the experiences of the past while opening the door on a new era.

Our campus unification aligned with the completion of the Uptown development, in which CIA has played a critical role.

Today, University Circle throbs with the energy of new restaurants, retail businesses, college life and our amazing arts and culture institutions. As members of the neighborhood, we work with MOCA Cleveland in a number of ways that include an annual furniture design contest and internships that are managed through our Career Center.

August also brought Lumiere, a special premiere night for the Cinematheque as it moved into the Peter B. Lewis Theater. In September, our opening celebration gala, Chromos, gave CIA supporters and donors an opportunity to see some of the first fruits of their efforts during a night of food, dancing and bidding on one-of-a-kind auction experiences. And in October, families came out for our art-making open house, Kaleidoscope.

Through course offerings and internships, CIA students and instructors collaborate with University Circle institutions in projects that benefit all. For example, CIA animation students worked with counterparts at the Cleveland Institute of Music and the Cleveland Museum of Natural History to create a series of animations with original art and music for the dome of the museum’s planetarium.

Other examples include students making plant studies at the Cleveland Botanical Garden. First-year CIA students worked with residents of the nearby Abington Arms, a senior living community, to make work about objects that were meaningful to the residents.

In conjunction with Cleveland Hopkins International Airport, and with support from the Cleveland Foundation, CIA created 29 large canvases for the airport ticket lobby featuring Cleveland landmarks rendered through typography. CIA students created all the pieces in the series, which is known collectively as Type City Cleveland.

Beyond specific initiatives, the CIA sphere of influence grows in the region, with alums working and showing in galleries and museums near and far. Alumni also teach art and design at all levels of education, and continue to pass their knowledge and expertise forward.

As the CIA collaboration footprint grows, so does the success of the region’s creative economy, making Northeast Ohio a strong, vibrant community for all.

And the occasion of the Republican National Convention meeting this year in Cleveland bolstered CIA’s relationships with its University Circle neighbors. Planning meetings began in May and included the University Circle cultural institutions, hospitals and safety forces. CIA became a hub for these meetings, where key players hashed out a plan to work alongside and communicate with RNC planners.

Our Greater Cleveland arts, culture and business community Beyond University Circle, CIA worked hand in glove with institutions across the county to pass Issue 8, the continuation of a cigarette tax that provides funding for arts programming in Cuyahoga County.

During the late spring, CIA partnered with LAND Studio to host Houston-based artist Keliy Anderson-Staley to create tintype portraits that became part of a series of public art installations along the Regional Transit Authority’s Red Line.

Industrial design majors once again studied real-world transportation design challenges through courses sponsored by General Motors (fall semester) and with the boutique motorcycle company Cleveland CycleWerks (spring), owned by CIA alumnus Scott Colosimo ’04.

Graphic design students competed in spring to design the medal for MetroHealth Medical Center’s first Cleveland Heritage Award recipients. Junior Jessica Sandy’s design, emblazoned with the Veterans Memorial Bridge, Terminal Tower and Lake Erie, was bestowed upon five civic leaders: the Rev. Otis Moss Jr., Morton Mandel, Sandra Pianalto, George Voinovich and Richard Pogue.

In collaboration with Nottingham Spirk and biomimicry fellows at the University of Akron, CIA industrial design students researched how to work biomimicry into the design process in regard to home health care. The team explored natural models for solutions to stability, mobility, temperature and moisture control and more.

Providing access to the college’s extensive study collection, including works like Gordon Gund’s “Freedom” sculpture, has been a priority in the unified campus and a key component of CIA’s community outreach.

CIA award recipients honored for educational, artistic achievement Brouillard, Goss and Schwartz heralded in 2015 −16 Schreckengost Award Established in 2000, the Schreckengost Award was named for the late artist and industrial designer Viktor Schreckengost, a 1929 graduate of CIA who taught here for almost 70 years. It is presented each year to a current or former faculty member in recognition of teaching excellence.

Professor Gretchen Goss, chair of Jewelry + Metals, received the award at commencement on May 14, 2015.

Goss, who joined CIA in 1989, earned her BFA and MFA at Kent State University, majoring in jewelry and metals as an undergraduate and in enameling as a graduate student. She has been a visiting artist at Kent and Oklahoma State University, and over the years has presented workshops and lectures at countless conferences and exhibitions across the United States. She has curated shows at the Thomas Riley Gallery and SPACES Gallery.

Her work is in public collections including University Hospitals of Cleveland, the Butler Institute of American Art, the University of Michigan and the Cleveland Art Association.

She is a member of the Enamelist Society, which in 2013 honored her with a Creative Arts Award. She has won numerous Ohio Arts Council individual artist grants, and has been reviewed by national crafts magazines. Most recently, her work appeared in Heat Exchang2, in Cardiff, Wales, and in Little Dreams in Glass and Metal at the Fuller Craft Museum in Brockton Ma.

Award for Service At the 2015 Convocation, Michael Schwartz was presented CIA’s Award for Service.

He joined the college’s Board of Directors in 2009 and served as chair from 2012 through 2015. He served briefly as interim chair before retiring from that position in fall of 2016. He brought tremendous insight, honed over a 40-year career in higher education.

A native of Chicago, Schwartz attended the University of Illinois–Urbana Champaign where he earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology, master’s degree in labor and industrial relations, and PhD in sociology.

He taught and did research at Wayne State University and Indiana University, Bloomington. He became chair of the Department of Sociology and Social Psychology at Florida Atlantic University and then dean of the College of Social Science there, before moving to Kent State University to become vice president for graduate studies and research.

He assumed roles of increasing leadership at Kent State until serving as president from 1982 until 1991, when he became president emeritus and trustees professor.

As president of Cleveland State University from 2001 to 2009, he was praised for raising the academic standards of the university and overseeing key construction projects. He is the author of more than 50 papers and books.

Award for Artistic Achievement Longtime Ceramics professor William Brouillard was the recipient of the 2015 CIA Award for Artistic Achievement.

After joining the CIA faculty in 1980, Brouillard divided his time between teaching in the Ceramics Department and making ceramic art in his studio in Cleveland’s Tremont neighborhood. He works in earthenware in the majolica tradition of 16th century Italy, but uses the local industrial background of his studio as a source of images and subject matter.

Brouillard retired from CIA in May 2016, and continues his studio work.

He earned a bachelor’s degree at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and a master of fine arts degree in ceramics from Alfred University.

He was a resident craftsman at the Penland School in North Carolina before coming to CIA. His artwork is represented in the collections of more than 15 centers, including the Cleveland Museum of Art, the American Museum of Ceramic Arts, and Tokyo National Museum. He has won numerous grants and awards, including an Excellence in Design Award from the American Craft Museum, Creative Workforce Fellowship from the Community Partnership for Arts and Culture, Lifetime Achievement Award from Cleveland Arts Prize, Individual Excellence Award from the Ohio Arts Council, and a McKnight Grant which enabled him to be an artist in residence at the Northern Clay Center in Minneapolis.

2015 – 2016 Highlights in Pictures

Disney artist Orsi visits as ‘Zootopia’ hits screens Fresh from work on the Disney animated film Zootopia, artist Nick Orsi visited CIA in February to discuss the art of animation with more than 100 students and faculty. “I really love sitting down with writers and directors,” Orsi said. “I learn how to become a better character designer from the writers. They’re talking about the bones of the character, and coming up with all these relatable aspects. It helps me in my thinking when I’m tackling a drawing.”

Fox 8’s Crumpton kicks up excitement at CIA Kenny “Kickin’ It With Kenny” Crumpton (right) and the crew from FOX 8 News spent the morning of Feb. 24, 2016 exploring the Cleveland Institute of Art’s unified campus, starting outside with a shot of the Toby Lewis Media Mesh. They dropped into Reinberger Gallery for a visit to the Student Independent Exhibition, then aired segments in the studios in Jewelry + Metals, Painting and Drawing departments. The building “exemplifies everything we try to do, which is to provide students with space, time and light to do their work,” CIA President Grafton Nunes told Crumpton.

Nine CIA artists part of Creative Workforce grant program Nine artists connected to CIA were part of the 2016 class of Creative Workforce Fellowship recipients, a taxpayer-funded program that supports the work of Cuyahoga County artists. The Community Partnership for Arts and Culture chose 40 recipients in visual arts, media arts, design, craft, dance, literature, music and theater. The CIA faculty members and graduates who received $15,000 grants were (right) Paul Sobota ‘05, adjunct faculty member Bob Drake, Drawing Department Chair Sarah Kabot, Jewelry + Metals professor Kathy Buszkiewicz, Christi Burchfield ‘06, faculty members Kevin Kautenburger and Jimmy Kuehnle, and Darius Steward ‘08.

First year students plumb memory with neighbors First-year students in the course Charette: Community + Collaboration engaged in a memory book project with seniors and people with disabilities living at Abington Arms in University Circle. Learning oral history techniques and handmade book structures allowed students to bring visual storytelling skills to bear while bringing enrichment to the residents’ experience.

Ceramics hosts Japanese master for residency Ceramist Yasuhisa Kohyama was an 11-year-old Japanese boy in the 1940s, when a neighboring family hired him to paint a portrait of a recently deceased person for his funeral.

The grownups paid him in art supplies, and he never stopped making art. Kohyama and his partner, Wakae Nakamoto, were guests of CIA’s Ceramics Department for two weeks in April.

Celebrating our transformation through a spectrum of creativity On September 19, 2015 CIA welcomed more than 500 guests to Chromos, a gala featuring creative party attire and unique auction and raffle experiences—all against a colorful backdrop of CIA’s new unified campus. The effort was driven by the Opening Celebration Committee, led by Chromos Co-Chairs Fran Belkin, Meg FultonMueller and Barbara Richter (who also chaired the overarching Spectrum series of opening events). Pictured from left: Laura Ospanik ’80, Karen Skunta ’74, Cathy Stamler, Grafton Nunes, Barbara Richter, Sally Hollington, Fran Belkin, Meg Fulton-Mueller and Betsy Stueber.

Dafoe sends Class of ’16 off with wise words Actor Willem Dafoe recalled his own training as an actor during his address at CIA’s commencement on May 14 at the Cleveland Museum of Art. “Frankly, I’m envious,” he told the graduates. “Not only of your youth, but the range of possibilities of study you’ve been offered here.” That evening, Dafoe spoke to Cinematheque audiences who came to watch the film Pasolini, in which he starred.

Visionary donors endow scholarships for tomorrow’s artists, designers Each year, the Cleveland Institute of Art bestows more than $10 million in scholarships, awards and financial aid to students based on a variety of criteria, including academic merit and financial need.

“Scholarships are a crucial part of the way we support students to become successful artists and designers,” said Malou Monago, Vice President of Institutional Advancement. “Providing help to promising students allows the college to attract an ever more diverse and talented student body.”

Key to these successes are a growing group of dedicated supporters who work with the college’s Office of Institutional Advancement to establish scholarships through annual donations and planned giving. Here are just a few examples of donors who have a passion and vision for helping current and future generations of artists and designers.

The Marilyn J. White ’79 Scholarship Marilyn White attended CIA in the 1950s, but ran out of money.

Her father had died when she was young and her mother was a single parent. She returned to CIA through an art education program 20 years later, graduating in 1979. She went on to have a long career teaching art in East Cleveland schools.

Now, White has found a way to help students like her.

The Marilyn J. White ’79 Scholarship is an endowed scholarship awarded to a student from Cuyahoga, Lake or Geauga counties in Northeast Ohio in honor of White’s professional teaching career in East Cleveland.

It is meant to follow the student through four years at CIA, provided that the student remains in good academic and judicial standing with the school.

“While it was important for me to encourage students to pursue their interest in art, I could foresee what they were going to encounter once they graduated (high school),” White said.

“Like me, they would have a hard time financially. Those who wanted to pursue their interest in art could do so as a hobby or a pastime, not as a career. That would take more money.

“When I retired from teaching, I became more aware of how I could give back,” she said. “I remembered those wonderful days at the Cleveland School of Art, how the working scholarship got me through my first two years.”

“This past year, I created a scholarship fund to help those talented kids enroll in the Cleveland Institute of Art classes and ultimately earn a degree in art,” White said. “What pride I would have when I see a deserving, talented student graduate and pursue a career in what he or she loves, whether it be art history, painting, ceramics, printmaking, or yes, even teaching art.”

The Fran and Jules Belkin Scholarship Fran Belkin and husband Jules recently established an endowed scholarship that will be awarded every year to a student who has academic promise and a financial need.

The Belkin scholarship is intended to follow the student through his or her time at CIA. Fran credits fellow CIA Board member Laura Ospanik for introducing the idea of setting up a scholarship. “I didn’t even realize that was an option,” Belkin said. “Once you know it’s available to you, then you think about it.”

She structured it to start immediately. “I have so many friends at the school, and we see how difficult it is for art students to pay for their education,” she said. “We were thrilled we had the resources to help, because they receive a superior education at CIA.” Among the Belkins’ philanthropic endeavors, CIA represents their only scholarship. “This is our school,” she said.

The Ospanik Scholarship Laura Ospanik ’80 remembers what it was like to be a CIA student — the rewarding part of her work as a Graphic Design major, and the challenge of paying for her education. She always had two or three jobs in addition to school work, and she had scholarship help, too.

Now a member of the CIA Board of Directors, Ospanik and her husband, Steve Robbins, created an annual scholarship fund for current use, and established a planned gift to sustain it over time.

In addition to the many scholarships that enable students to pursue their art and design studies, CIA each year bestows special awards that encourage graduating seniors to continue work on special projects through travel. Recipients from the class of 2016 were Hien Nguen, Amber Ford, Gretchen Hilty, Madeleine Toth, Grace Gongaware and Meghan Calvert.

The idea to fund a scholarship arrived in the form of a gift to herself. “I’d always at some level been a CIA donor, but it was my 50th birthday and my husband said ‘What would you like?’” she says.

What she wanted was to lend the same kind of help she had received as a student.

“There’s so many positive points in the scholarship program,” she says. “First off, as a student, you feel you’ve won something, which is a wonderful feeling. And it gives the people donating a great feeling to be helping someone, too. You know where it’s going. You can put a face to it.”

Thomas R. Roese Scholarship in LGBT Leadership Painter and longtime art educator Tom Roese ’71 had dreamed of helping a student by way of a scholarship, though he assumed he would only be able to do it “for a semester or so.” Only after meeting with Amy Raufman in CIA’s Institutional Advancement department did he understand that he could establish a planned gift that would help see a student through his or her career at CIA. Pictured: Marilyn White ’79, Jules and Fran Belkin,

His endowed scholarship, the Thomas R. Roese Scholarship in LGBT Leadership, will be awarded to a rising sophomore in Illustration or Drawing and who identifies as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender, or who has demonstrated their support of the LGBT community. Roese, who majored in Graphic Design, was a career educator in the Parma City Schools, and has drawings and paintings in public and private collections. He looks back on his life before CIA as difficult, thanks to punishing attitudes toward gay students.

“After I got out and got to art school, it got better,” he says.

“It was so much easier, because it was like home, and everyone was an art kid.” He finds tremendous satisfaction in knowing that his investments will one day nurture others as they work toward becoming their best selves. “This is fabulous,” he said.

“It’s what I always wanted to do.”

A Year of Community Building / 2015 – 2016

Working to support a passion Cynthia and Jim Gascoigne When the Student Independent Exhibition opens each spring, Reinberger Gallery teems with students, faculty and the artcurious who want to see what up-andcoming artists are thinking and making.

It’s a big night for everyone involved, but you’d be hard pressed to find a more ardent fan of SIE than Cynthia Prior Gascoigne.

“It’s just the best night of the year here.

It’s where we show what we produce here,” she says. “It’s student run from top to bottom. And the enthusiasm that night— it’s just one great night.”

Prior Gascoigne has served since 2011 on CIA’s board of directors. In October 2016, she was named chair, replacing Michael Schwartz, who had been in that position on an interim basis.

Prior Gascoigne came to know CIA through her membership in cARTa. The Cleveland Art Association was established in 1915, and raises money for CIA scholarships through an annual event that allows members to borrow from its lending collection of about 220 artworks.

Her new role as CIA board chair deepens Prior Gascoigne’s ties to CIA, but it’s hard to imagine that her enthusiasm for the college could be any stronger. For years now, she and husband Jim have supported the college consistently through contributions to the CIA capital campaign and annual fund, and by attending events. For the 2016 SIE show, Prior Gascoigne and CIA board member Elizabeth Stueber hosted an exhibition reception for friends, in the hopes of growing the network of supporters.

They also regularly add student and faculty works to their personal collection — though never out of a sense of duty.

“You have to like the work,” says Jim. “There’s an artist who has since moved out of town. When we bought a piece, he was very appreciative and thought we were being generous just to support him. I remember telling him, ‘This is a wonderful work. We would not buy it if we didn’t like your work.’”

The Gascoignes come by their interest in art organically. Jim, who grew up in Shaker Heights, remembers childhood trips to the Cleveland Museum of Art, and being mesmerized by the famous George Bellows oil painting, “Stag at Sharkey’s.”

“I went to school one semester in Europe and bought a painting in London near Hyde Park, which we still have,” Jim says. “The car got broken into in Greece, and everything got taken but the painting.”

10

Cynthia’s interest in art developed during her childhood near Columbus, where a great-aunt who loved the arts encouraged her curiosity and sent her to Cleveland to visit the museums.

When it came time to go to college, though, her parents were firm: They weren’t sending her to school for four years to study art. So at Wellesley College, she double majored in economics and art history.

The business degree was for her parents; the art history was for her.

“I spent my first two years getting my [economics] major requirements out of the way, then spent the last two years doing my art history,” she says.

Eventually, she added an MBA from Harvard Business School to her resume.

She and Jim both made their careers in business, but they never stopped loving art. Their personal collection includes early 20th-century Cleveland School artists, works of Op Art pioneers from Ohio, and contemporary works from a mostly Ohio roster of artists.

“To this day, my two great loves are the stock market and art,” Cynthia says. “It all worked out.”

2015 – 2016 Financial Summary Fall 2015 total enrollment was 606 students, which included 204 new first‐year and transfer students. Progress toward the longer‐term enrollment target of 650 students is continuing with the more recent fall 2016 entering class at 188 students.

Total current enrollment is 624 students.

Tuition and fees net of financial aid represents 68 percent of total operating revenues. The college remains sensitive to the significant financial investment for education made by students and families. CIA has kept tuition and fee increases below national averages for the last several years.

Support from government grants, current year restricted grants and endowment support totaled 16 percent of the 2015 – 2016 operating revenue. Endowment support includes distributions from endowment funds held in trust and distributions from the CIA-managed portfolio. A majority of the endowment distributions are used for need- and merit-based financial aid.

At June 30, 2016, the market value of endowment assets was $25.3 million, composed of $8.3 million of funds held in trust and $17.0 million of CIA-managed investments. The overall

asset allocation of the CIA-managed portfolio at June 30, 2016 was 48 percent domestic equity, 19 percent foreign equity, 21 percent fixed income, 10 percent alternative investments and 2 percent cash. The fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 was a volatile period for investment markets. The one-year total return on the CIA-managed portfolio was -3.0 percent net of fees; the one-year average return on the endowment portfolio held in trust was -3.6 percent, net of fees, for a weighted average return of -3.2 percent for the combined portfolio.

Auxiliary enterprises represent 9 percent of total operating revenues and include the Cinematheque film program and student housing. Annual Fund giving represents 6 percent of operating revenues.

In 2015 – 2016, the college spent 36 percent of its operating budget on instructional programs, 15 percent on academic support, 15 percent for student services, 24 percent for institutional support and 10 percent for auxiliary enterprises.

Thank You and Welcome During the 2015 –16 fiscal year, the Cleveland Institute of Art welcomed Hugh Garvey III as a new member of the Board of Directors. William Busta and John W. (Bill) Nottingham ’01 joined the Board of Directors after involvement on the Advisory Board. Steven Cencula was elected to a new three-year term on the Board of Directors, following a one-year interval due to term limits. Phyllis Seltzer completed her third three-year term on the Board of Directors, and we thank her for service.

CIA welcomed Christopher Gilbert, Patricia Saiger Limbacher and Taryn Ponsky to the Advisory Board.

We look forward to their insight and active interest in the college.

Sadly, Director Emerita Chaille Tullis, Director Emeritus Harvey G. Oppmann and Advisory Board member Mable “Skip” Watts passed away this year. Mrs. Tullis was involved in volunteer leadership at CIA for 40 years, having served on the Advisory Board (1971 –1983), Board of Directors (1983 –1994) and Honorary Board (1994 – 2015). Mr. Oppman was also profoundly involved at CIA, having served as Chairman of the Board from 1983-1992. He also served on the Advisory Board (1978 –1980), Board of Directors (1980 – 2009) and on CIA’s Honorary Board (2009 – 2016). Mrs. Watts served on the Advisory Board from 1982 – 88 and from 1994 – 2016. Each of these volunteer leaders will be remembered for their devotion to CIA and the Cleveland arts community.

It is the policy of CIA to provide equal employment and advancement opportunities to all applicants, candidates, employees, and faculty.

We do not discriminate in employment opportunities or practices on the basis of gender, sexual orientation, race, color, religion, national origin, age, mental or physical disability if basic job qualifications are met, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.

Mission Statement To nurture the intellectual, artistic and professional development of students and community members through rigorous visual arts and design education.

Portrait of a College of Art and Design

Cleveland Institute of Art 11610 Euclid Avenue Cleveland, Ohio 44106 216.421.7410 cia.edu

One of the nation’s premier colleges of art and design, Cleveland Institute of Art combines a strong foundation in visual art theory with solid instruction in the liberal arts, unmatched studio experience, and opportunities for practical application of skills and knowledge through sponsored projects and internships. Our curriculum fosters critical thinking, problem solving, and risk taking and prepares the next generation of artists and designers to improve our society and enrich our culture.

Founded in 1882, CIA is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools and the National Association of Schools of Art and Design and is a member of the Association of Independent Colleges of Art and Design.

We extend our programs to the public through gallery exhibitions, lectures, a continuing education program for adults and children, and the Cleveland Institute of Art Cinematheque, an art and independent film program.

Cleveland Institute of Art is supported in part by the residents of Cuyahoga County through a public grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture.
