This summer, become immersed in the intrigue of Shakespeare's Hamlet— a riveting blend of passion, ghosts, and royal drama that promises to heat up your summer nights with gripping intensity.

Spearheaded by migrant Argentinian Artist Julia O. Bianco, the exhibition aims to open the realm of possibility in our everyday experiences and re-examine discarded objects through the lens of enchantment.

In Kindred Spirits, Alice Scovell--the playwright behind the Oscar Wilde sequel The Rewards of Being Frank— brings back to life many of Coward’s beloved characters ...and introduces a few new, memorable ones.

Premiering at the Cincinnati Art Museum, Discovering Ansel Adams provides an unprecedented exploration of the early career of Ansel Adams (1902–1984), demonstrating how, between 1916 and the 1940s, Adams developed from a 14-year-old tourist with a camera into America’s most celebrated photographer. Drawn from the definitive Adams collection at the Center for Creative Photography, Tucson, the exhibition brings together approximately 80 virtuosic photographs with unique ephemera including the artist’s handwritten correspondence, snapshots, personal possessions, and photographic working materials. Featured works range from small, one-of-a-kind photographs from Adams’s teenage years to jaw-dropping mural-sized prints of his most iconic mature views. Join the artist on his journey from teenage musician to young mountaineer, as he makes his first pictures at Yosemite, experiences the American Southwest, learns how to communicate with a broad national audience, and undertakes an epic quest to photograph America’s national parks. Along the way, discover how Ansel Adams became Ansel Adams.

Founded in 1975 by the President of University of Arizona and Ansel Adams, the Center for Creative Photography is one of the world’s finest institutions for the study of the history of photography, and a singularly important archive for Ansel Adams studies. Discovering Ansel Adams presents a rare opportunity to encounter the CCP’s Ansel Adams collection outside of Arizona.
