EYES BEHIND THE MASK: A FAMILY ART WORKSHOP --- MONDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2025 FROM 11:00AM TO 3:00PM
Join us for a fun-filled day of art making inspired by the exhibition: Bohemian Chrysalis: Unveiling Cleveland's Infamous Kokoon Klub (November 26, 2024 - March 2, 2025) | Canton Museum of Art. Truly unique, bohemian, and outrageous, Cleveland's Kokoon Klub was comprised of a group of artists in the early 1900s and beyond who stood for originality, self-expression, and freedom of thought.Though Kokoon Klub artists regularly held exhibitions and sold their work, they didn't sell for very much in a time when modernism was not understood. In response, an annual Kokoon Klub Ball gave rise to some of the most remarkable art ever created in Cleveland — from fantastic costumes to imaginative posters, while inspiring future artists to document their own creative journeys.This art drop-in inspires deeper thinking about self-expression and the colorful ways we reveal or conceal our identity to others. For all ages and skill levels.
Recommended for ages 5+ with an adult caretaker. This is a FREE event but pre-registration is required.
