Likenesses and Libations
Join MassMu and Massillon Public Library for Likenesses and Libations Date Night in conjunction with "Gilding Northeast Ohio: Fashion and Fortune 1870–1900" on Saturday, September 28! Couples will paint or draw their partner during a workshop led by instructor Nick Lee from 6:00–7:00 p.m. in the Massillon Museum’s Gessner Hall. The Museum will be open until 7:30 p.m. for guests to explore "Gilding Northeast Ohio." This program is free and open to adults. All supplies provided. A cash bar will be available. Register via MassMu.org/Tickets.
Nick Lee is a painter and 2021 Kent State University graduate. Lee lives and works in Akron, Ohio. Lee’s work is inspired by the diversity of human experience. As a Japanese-American, Lee’s visual art strives to better represent minorities like himself in American portraiture and Western art. Another motivation for Lee is self-discovery. He uses symbolic Japanese objects in his paintings to connect with a culture that was never taught to him growing up. Lee is the 2023 recipient of the Distinguished Citizen for Art Education for the Northeast Ohio region by the OAEA. Lee also received the 2024 Arts Alive Emerging Artist award by Summit Artspace.
"Gilding Northeast Ohio: Fashion and Fortune 1870–1900" is organized by the Massillon Museum and on view in the Main Gallery through October 13, 2024. The exhibition, guest-curated by Brian Centrone, is funded by a Major Arts Enhancements and Exhibit Grant through ArtsinStark and Visit Canton.
