Refresh Collective Information

Refresh Collective is a 501(c)3 arts and youth development organization with recording studios + screen printing shops in Cleveland and Cincinnati, Ohio. We are music producers, songwriters and screen printers who harness the power of music and fashion to equip youth and uplift communities. Our neighborhood recording studios and screen printing shops offer workshops, summer camps and in-school programs that have helped over 6000 youth and adults write songs and design t-shirts that address social justice, education, and health concerns. Youth grow in confidence and character as they craft their message and build strong relationships. Young adults develop transferable employment and leadership skills while planning, producing, and promoting our collaborative work. Professional artists develop new work, perform community concerts and mentor youth in the heart of the city. Inner-city youth experience a disproportionate rate of poverty, homelessness, violence, and abuse. Refresh Collective is uniquely qualified and has proven capabilities to build intentional relationships, create safe spaces, deliver arts programming and provide workforce skill development from caring professional artists. Our artists are mentors who teach with care and commitment. In fact, the demand for our work has grown. You can help us increase our capacity to serve more youth in the heart of the city.
