While they did not produce data that analyzed public health by neighborhood, they did publish the state of Cincinnati and the variables that most impact public health in our region. These variables include poverty levels of the elderly, children, and single parents, ratio of Caucasian to non Caucasian residents, percentage of residents over the age of 25 who are limited in English proficiency, education levels, unemployment levels, and rental housing levels. Using these variables, the Department of Health developed a Community Needs Index (CNI) that identifies area with the most need. The CDCA has been working to counteract many of the variables listed as most impacting public health. Not only does the CDCA work to decrease poverty levels by boosting the business districts and supporting low income Camp Washington housing, but they also work to increase employment levels.

    Welcome to the 6th Edition of the Greater Cincinnati Exhibition Opportunities Guide published by the Weston Art Gallery. The EOG 2020 is a veritable encyclopedia of venues and contact information for Cincinnati-area artists seeking a first show or continuing an established exhibition record. With 157 listings, the EOG 2020 is not only a directory of places to show work locally and regionally, it is also a source for Cincinnati’s vibrant arts scene. So don’t miss out on your opportunities: Get going and participate! © 2020 Alice F. and Harris K. Weston Art Gallery Research assistance provided by Kasey Koczo / UC-DAAP Fine Arts 2022 EOG 2020 – page i Artist Tips Before applying, visit some of the listings in this guide to determine which venues are the best match for you. Alternative spaces are a good place to begin. Most commercial galleries expect an established body of work and an exhibition history before representing an artist. Contact venues first to ask about selection procedures: Do not expect anyone to review your work without an appointment. Most venues review digital images or printouts first. If there is interest, a studio visit might be requested. When sending your proposal: For electronic entries, request the proper digital format in advance. Label each submission in your e-mail or jumpdrive with your name, title, date, media, and dimensions. If sending a physical copy of your proposal, include a self-addressed stamped envelope to ensure the return of your materials, or assume they will be discarded. Track responses and returns to better strategize your efforts.

  • ECONOMIC SIGNIFICANCE of BARLEY One of the Strengths of the U.S
    A-1 ECONOMIC SIGNIFICANCE OF BARLEY One of the strengths of the U.S. economy is its crop production and agricultural based industries. Crop and value-added product exports reduce the unfavorable trade balance and generate new employment, grower income, and federal revenue. Maintenance of U.S. strength in agriculture requires continuing efforts to improve crop productivity and quality. U.S. agricultural production that can supply both domestic demands and can compete in world markets will only be accomplished by strong investments in agricultural research programs. Innovative and competitive research will keep the U.S. at the forefront of the development and implementation of new agricultural technologies. Domestic Use of Barley in the US Barley is a significant U.S. crop. Barley production 2014 - 2018 Average is approximately 215 million bushels with an Whiskey 2.7% Seed estimated value of $1.2 billion as a raw agricultural Beer 2.3% Feed & Other 62.1% commodity (2012 Census). 29.4% Barley producers stimulate the rural economy through the purchase of fertilizer, seed, chemicals, fuel, labor, other supplies and farm equipment. These variable cash expenses averaged $549 million annually (2013-2017). Food The impact of barley on the U.S. economy is even 3.5% more significant if the value-added products resulting from its utilization as an animal feed, in malt beverages, and in food products are considered. The economy also benefits from exports which annually average $57 million for barley and its milled products, $226 million for malt and malt extracts, $609 million for beer, and $1.06 billion for whiskey (2013-2017).

  • Unraveling a Place-Based Experience: Mapping a Commercial Evolution in Over-The-Rhine, Cincinnati, OH
    Unraveling a Place-Based Experience: Mapping a Commercial Evolution in Over-The-Rhine, Cincinnati, OH A thesis submitted to The Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Community Planning in the School of Planning of the College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning by Daniella Beltran Bachelor of Science in Architecture The Ohio State University Committee Chair: Dr. Conrad Kickert Committee Member: Dr. Christopher Auffrey Submitted March 30, 2017 ABSTRACT We, as shoppers, homeowners, employees, company executives, and onlookers, have been convinced that Over-the-Rhine (OTR) is where we should be and where we want to be. This is made evident by consistently rising retail sales, condominium/town-home development and sales, employment increases, company relocations, and media attention. These indicators of a growing economy contrast with the devastated circumstances experienced throughout the neighborhood’s history. OTR seems to have instilled a renewed sense of place, made up by a pleasing physical setting, a distinct image, and a range of activities for people to participate in. As the current commercial scene undergoes dramatic changes, it becomes increasingly worthwhile to understand how the commercial experience being created today compares to past experiences. An investigation of patterns in commercial use over time can provide context to our understanding of OTR’s evolved sense of place. This study documents the spatial arrangement of ground-floor commercial spaces, organized by product and/or service type, as listed for the years 1930, 1961, 1993, and 2017. The patterns of changes observed demonstrate an organizational difference between commercial development that occurs “naturally” and that “instigated.” Growth and decline of ground-floor commercial spaces experienced incremental decline between 1930 and 1993, while the period between 1993 and 2017 shows the effect of large-scale influence.
