    ABOUT KARAMU HOUSE

    In 1915, Oberlin College graduates Russell and Rowena Jelliffe opened the Playhouse Settlement in a Cleveland area called The Roaring Third.

    The Jelliffes wanted to build an environment where people of different races, religions, and social and economic backgrounds could come together to seek and share common ventures through the arts.

    Karamu House was established as a gathering place for racially-diverse members of the surrounding community at that time. As the community became predominantly African American, Karamu responded with programs geared to their needs and interests.

    Today, Karamu is evolving to be reborn as a beating heart for the entire community, regardless of race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identification, or age, as it embarks on its second 100 years, retaining its historical identity as "a place of joyful gathering.

    " Core programs include a five-performance, socially relevant and professional quality theatre season; arts education in drama/theatre, music and dance for all ages; and community programming, such as the

    In the Tradition


    series, live music concerts, and other culturally and socially relevant experiences that invite participation and engagement, reflection, and a re-commitment to cultural values.
