One of the many advantages to living in Richland County and north central Ohio is the quality of painting, music, and other artistic offerings available in the nearby metropolitan areas of Cleveland and Columbus. These compliment and expand the wonderful artistic creations which can be seen right here at home.
Speaking of area artistic offers, the Passages exhibition at the Mansfield Art Center continues through February 26. More information can be found here.
Both nearby cities have major art exhibitions on offer this year.
