The Idea Center® at PlayhouseSquare

The Idea Center® at PlayhouseSquare is the result of a model partnership between WVIZ/PBS and 90.3 WCPN ideastream® and PlayhouseSquare.

The Idea Center is located at 1375 Euclid Avenue, in the heart of Cleveland’s PlayhouseSquare District, between the Allen Theatre and the United Way building.

The headquarters for ideastream and the home for PlayhouseSquare’s arts education programs, the Idea Center is much more than a building. It is a place for creativity and education. It is a place for the arts and technology to come together in new ways. It is a place for learning, rehearsing, performing and broadcasting.
