Canton Arts District

The Canton Arts District in Downtown Canton, Ohio has exploded on the scene over the last five years. Through the amazing efforts of 50 artists, and the partnership of the Special Improvement District and ArtsinStark, the Canton Arts District is an evolving collaboration of commerce, camaraderie, and creativity.

The Arts District now boasts six art galleries (with regular hours) and twenty-two artist studios (open when artists are working, or for special events). We have 40 new pieces of public art, fabulous restaurants, bars, little shops -- and a monthly First Friday celebration that attracts thousands. The Canton Palace Theatre is in the Arts District ... and just a few blocks north is the magnificent Cultural Center for the Arts. Come check us out. Our galleries, our artists, our dining, and our spirit bring out the best in all who visit!
