Accomplished Cincinnati photographer Melvin Grier presents a survey of his photographic journey.
Melvin Grier (Cincinnati, OH) spent over thirty years honing his skills as a photographer working for The Cincinnati Post, documenting news events and the people of Cincinnati. When the Post ceased publication in 2007, he used that opportunity to expand his creative development and pursue his passion for photography as an independent artist. This survey of his work features the people and places that capture Grier’s photographic journey throughout his long and accomplished career.
The opening reception for It Was Always About the Work will be held on Friday, June 16, 6-8 p.m. and is free and open to the public.
Exhibition tours will be available with our Docentitos youth docents the night of the opening and by request throughout the summer. Contact Vanessa Holmes at vholmes@cincinnatiarts.org for more information.
