 Young Audiences of Northeast Ohio (YANEO, formerly Young Audiences of Greater Cleveland) is an affiliated professional chapter of Young Audiences, Inc., the country’s oldest and largest nonprofit arts-in-education organization dedicated to making the arts essential to the education of all school-aged children.
YANEO is the only multi-arts resource for Northeast Ohio schools—pre-school through high school—committed to making learning through the arts a fundamental component of young people’s development. Nationally, Young Audiences’ programs reach over 8 million youth each year. In 2005-2006, through more than 6,100 programs, YANEO served over 265,000 students in urban, rural and suburban school districts throughout six Northeast Ohio counties. Both organizations have been recognized for their work. The national organization is the recipient of the 1994 National Medal of Arts from the National Endowment of the Arts, sharing the award with the Cleveland Chapter.
On July 1, 2006, the Cleveland chapter changed its name to reflect an expanded service area throughout Northeast Ohio, serving the following 18 counties:

YANEO was founded in 1953 as a program of the School Concerts Committee of the Cleveland Chamber Music Society under the direction of George Szell, Maestro of the Cleveland Orchestra and board member of the national Young Audiences organization. Initially, musicians from The Cleveland Orchestra gave all-school concerts. The chapter has grown tremendously to provide arts-integrated programming and facilitate partnerships among Northeast Ohio area schools and the arts and cultural community to improve learning in the arts and of core academic subjects. With over five decades of experience, local educators consistently rely upon the quality, depth, and diversity of our exceptional integrated arts curriculum programming and professional development offerings. YANEO’s offices are located in Cleveland’s historic Shaker Square, and the organization’s goal continues to be bringing the power of the arts to all school-aged children regardless of school budgetary issues. |
