The Art of Sound: Four Centuries of Musical Instruments

Hannah Cook

Hours: 11 a.m.-5 p.m., Tuesday July 17 | Free.

Combing the powers of all things creative, the Cincinnati Art Museum features The Art of Sound, an exhibition of more than 100 worldly instruments that are as wonderful to hear as they are to look at. Spanning five continents and four centuries, this exhibition celebrates the impeccable craftsmanship of musical instruments, whether it is in the exquisite inlay work, the beautifully painted designs, or the detailed carvings. The Art of Sound will include musical instruments from the Cincinnati Art Museum's permanent collection that has been growing since 1888.
