Cleveland Museum of Art Series:

Please note that the Cleveland Museum of Art's presentation of the Picasso and Paper exhibition has been postponed indefinitely due to travel restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Read more about it here.

Our partners at the CMA have developed a new six-week course titled "The Many Stories of Modern Art." The course will explore artists like Édouard Manet, Pablo Picasso and Jackson Pollock and address what the world of modern art might look like without these dominant figures.
