The Art Academy of Cincinnati is presenting its 2026 Thesis Exhibitions from April 6 through May 1, showcasing the final work of graduating seniors across multiple disciplines. The free exhibitions are on view at the Academy’s galleries at 1212 Jackson Street in Cincinnati, including the Pearlman, McClure, Chidlaw, SITE1212, and Clean Cube spaces.

The four group exhibitions — titled “Kaleidoscope,” “Phantasmagoria,” “Overhead Underbelly,” and “All Roads Lead Here” — draw work from students in painting and drawing, illustration, sculpture, photography, digital arts animation, design, print media, and creative writing. The Academy describes the shows as highlighting “material exploration, narrative, and process, revealing a wide range of approaches that move fluidly between disciplines.”

Public gallery receptions are scheduled for Friday, April 10, and Friday, April 24, both from 5 to 8 p.m. A creative writing reception is planned for Thursday, April 23, at 7 p.m. Galleries are open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturday through Sunday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is free.
