It takes a village to run an arts festival, and we’re fortunate to have these incredible Cleveland organizations in ours. We’re grateful to our 19 community partners who share our mission to build cross-cultural understanding and celebrate the diversity of the human experience. Each one is doing meaningful work to inspire connection, celebrate culture, and strengthen our community. Explore these organizations and stay connected with the good work they’re doing across Cleveland. #BorderLight2026 #SupportTheArts #ClevelandRocks #BorderLightCLE
