As featured artist Dean Mitchell once said, “I have always considered my art to reflect the journey of my life; each painting revealing a personal perception of the things, places and people who have touched my life.” Artists such as Mitchell were focused on capturing the everyday people around him, and the activities he saw them do daily. "Quincy Factory Worker," the watercolor by Dean Mitchell displayed in this exhibit, portrays a man named Rags who worked at the Barnes Ice Plant Company, a plant that has since been shut down.

Did you know that no two zebras have the same pattern of stripes? Or that the green iguana can hold its breath underwater for up to 30 minutes? On this special Museum tour, we are teaming up with our friends at the Akron Zoo who will tell you about the animals featured in our galleries and their real-life counterparts.
Relax and enjoy friends, wine and fun while creating a personal masterpiece! Our artist will make painting easy and fun by instructing you step-by-step through re-creating this surprisingly easy painting inspired by the famous artwork American Flamingo, created by John James Audubon. American Flamingo is one of the 435 hand-colored engravings that make up John James Audubon’s monumental Birds of America, issued in four volumes between 1826 and 1838. The publication includes life-size representations of nearly five hundred species of North American birds.
