Register for September

Kick off the season with Dr. Hou-mei Sung, Curator of Eastern Asian Art, as she discusses Rediscovered Treasures. This exhibition will feature the hidden gems of East Asian Art, many of which were not fully documented or accessioned until the past decade, when through advanced research and conservation they were identified by Cincinnati Art Museum.

More programs coming soon.
