    News From the Arts Center

    Every picture tells a story. The concept of art as the gifted story teller drives the theme for this stunning multi-media exhibition featuring some of Cincinnati's finest contemporary artists. The exhibition runs through October 3.

    Also, the Kennedy Heights Arts Center is pleased to announce the opening of Click V, our fifth annual photography exhibition on October 10, 2009 from 6 to 8 p.m.

    The theme of this year's juried exhibition "Back to Basics" focuses on images of technology, old and new. As the Edsel is to the Smart Car, the hibachi is to outdoor kitchens, or the typewriter is to the iMac, the images explore the origins of today's technology. Click V is presented in conjunction with the American Society of Media Photographer's traveling exhibit, "One & Only Item Show".

    "This is one of the most fun shows we have all year. The eclectic ways that each artist finds to photograph the item shows amazing creativity, humor and skill," says Ellen Muse-Lindeman, the center's executive director. "It's a must-see."

    Click V also features a solo show by acclaimed photojournalist Gordon Baer and collaborator Michael Bolan titled "Dead Tech: A National Plight". This show is a visual journey about the demise of Cincinnati Milacron. Once an industry giant known worldwide for high-precision metal cutting, Milacron's now abandoned 140-acre habitat tells the personal story of generations of workers left behind. The gallery is open to the public Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Mondays through Fridays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Visitors are asked to call 631-4278 for more information. The exhibit runs through November 7. Admission is free.
