Current Exhibition
A Maker's Mark
January 22 - April 26, 2018
Julia and Larry Pollock Gallery – between Q and G buildings
Cleveland Clinic main campus
A Maker’s Mark introduces a group of emerging and local artists that apply non-traditional methods to the typical instruments of art-making. Using a series of innovative processes, these artists create objects that are layered in both surface and meaning. While some of these works incorporate similar media, each artist’s distinctive practice and technical fluidity evolves into a unique result. In turn, these dynamic structures produce a narrative that challenges the viewer’s understanding of the marks and their makers. This selection of artworks has been recently acquired and will soon be distributed throughout the health system. The opportunity to see these works side-by-side highlights the array of surprising materials and experimental approaches that contemporary artists are currently exploring.
Ongoing Programs
Performing Arts Program
A regular series of performances that provide audiences the opportunity to engage local artists, students and groups. This program is made possible through the generous support of many individuals, foundations, and companies.

The tours start at the Miller Lobby Information desk at 11 a.m., 1 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. every Wednesday. No reservation is necessary.

Hosted by appointment for small groups at Main Campus or for larger groups at Lyndhurst Campus, these free tours provide a forum for conversation inspired by Cleveland Clinic's Art Collection. Art in the Afternoon tours are designed to lift the spirits, engage the mind, and provide an enjoyable social experience for those with memory loss, dementia, and Alzheimer's Disease.
