Aronoff Center • Procter & Gamble Hall

a season for all Dear Friends, This month, we joyfully celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the Aronoff Center, which first opened its doors in October 1995. The Aronoff was built as a home for the arts in Cincinnati – a place where artists and audiences of all backgrounds can come together to explore, connect, and belong.

The CAA Presents! 2025-26 “Season for All” reflects our commitment to offering performances that spark imagination, bridge generations, and celebrate the richness of global cultures. Whether this is your first visit or you’ve been with us for all thirty years, we are delighted to welcome you. We hope this season inspires new memories while also recalling past experiences that have moved you, challenged you, or stayed with you long after the curtain fell.

Thank you for supporting the arts. Because of you, Cincinnati’s creative spirit continues to grow and flourish. We are so glad you are here.

Enjoy the show,

Steve Loftin President & CEO

Dav received a Caldecott Honor for his picture book The Paperboy. His stories are semi-autobiographical and celebrate friendship, empathy, and the triumph of the good-hearted.
