11 Years of Art, Unity, and Breaking Barriers! 🎨✨
For over a decade, we’ve been heading into the heart of our neighborhoods to do one thing: bring people together. What started as a mission to unify has grown into a legacy of over 40 large-scale public art pieces that now define our city’s landscape.
Each mural and installation represents a barrier broken and a community empowered.
But while our art is on the walls and in the ground, our heart has always been for the people.

To celebrate our 11th birthday, we are thrilled to finally invite you into our new home. Last year, we took a leap and purchased a building for our organization, and now it’s time to open the doors!

📍 SAVE THE DATE: Our Grand Opening to the Public!
🗓 When: May 30th - 1p to 5p
📍 Where: 1353 Woodman Drive

Come celebrate 11 years of inspiration and help us kick off this next chapter of unifying our city through art. We can’t wait to see you there!

Hidden in plain sight for over a century.

During recent renovations at Rhinegeist in Over-the-Rhine, crews uncovered a stunning early-1900s tile mosaic buried beneath layers of paint, brick, and mortar. The artwork reads “Moerlein’s Bottling Dept.” with the date 1896, linking the building directly to its past as a Christian Moerlein Brewing Company bottling plant.

The mosaic depicts a man and woman sharing a beer — a fitting image, considering Moerlein’s major role in Cincinnati’s brewing history before Prohibition shut the company down.

Rather than covering it back up, Rhinegeist chose to preserve and display the mosaic, honoring the brewery that came before.

📸 A photo of the Moerlein’s Bottle Department building from the early 1900s is in the comments.
