Something for Everyone

Started in 2017, Momentum is an annual festival that celebrates our vibrant community through arts and culture. Generously presented by ProMedica, this festival is a celebration of Toledo's talented visual, performing, and literary artists. Do as much or as little as you want–there is something that will spark a little creativity in everyone!

Celebrating our vibrant community through arts and culture.

BUILDING MOMENTUM

The story of Momentum is a celebration of community and the arts in Toledo. Nothing is a truer embodiment of this story than the Momentum | Intersection Exhibition. Started in 2018, a year after the festival's inaugural season, Intersection is an exhibit of glass art like no other.

This exhibit would not be possible without the ongoing partnership with NSG Pilkington and the Toledo Museum of Art.
