On Saturday February 21st, 2026 the Waterloo Arts District has the fortunate opportunity to host Brite Winter, an amazing music festival celebrating its SEVENTEENTH year in Cleveland.

As a resident living in this community, I am overwhelmed with the potential impact this festival can have on North Collinwood. To have people from all over Northeast Ohio witnessing the spaces on our beloved street, from Praxis Fiber Workshop to Waterloo Arts Gallery to Pop Life CLE to tasting Six Shooter Coffee or having a Doinks Burger or having a drink at The Millard Fillmore Presidential Library or brunch at The Beachland Ballroom and Tavern to seeing the street bedazzled with light and art in the thick of winter, all while ORIGINAL LOCAL MUSIC is happening ALL DAY, ALL ALONG the entire street...

This is a HUGE chance for North Collinwood to show how amazing, hard working, artistic, and passionate we are! Please take a moment to learn more about what Brite Winter is and why having it on WATERLOO is not just good for the businesses, but good for ALL OF US as neighbors, families, and community.

It's a risk to give Waterloo this opportunity and your gift, be it $10, $25, $50, $100, $150+ will no doubt clarify why the Waterloo Arts District is a perfect new home for Brite Winter!
