Visualizing Devotion

Every third Saturday of each month, stop by the Ames Family Atrium between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. to get a firsthand look at the art-making process. Each session provides the opportunity to engage and interact with a different Northeast Ohio maker during pop-up demonstrations and activities. See their work unfold and learn how artists create. Explore a related selection of authentic objects from the CMA’s education art collection in a pop-up Art Up Close session. See, think, and wonder. Join Canadian-Egyptian artist George Makary for a special rendition of Artist in the Atrium as he paints a life-size icon inspired by objects in Africa & Byzantium. Learn about contemporary icon painting during Makary’s live demonstration, ask him about his artistic process, or participate in your own art-making activity connected to Africa & Byzantium. This live demonstration will continue beyond the Artist in the Atrium event. Join us in the atrium to see Makary’s painting develop. Visit the Africa & Byzantium exhibition (April 14–July 21, 2024) to see how this work connects to painting traditions in Coptic art, including the CMA’s own sixth-century tapestry of the Virgin and Child. This program is possible thanks to a generous grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, which supports the Cleveland Museum of Art and Case Western Reserve University’s joint program in art history and museum studies. ✨Calling all foodies + fierce supporters of women-owned / women-led Cleveland businesses!✨
