Current Special Features

A special feature is a temporary presentation of artworks from the museum’s collection, or a select arrangement of artworks lent from other institutions, organized by the Cincinnati Art Museum. Special features are smaller and more focused in scope than exhibitions. Some museums call these “focused exhibitions” or “rotations.”
