Discover The Canton Museum of Art,
a Great Community Resource
The Canton Museum of Art is a home for art in Canton and Stark County, visited by over 30,000 people each year. The Museum’s Permanent Collection of over 1100 works includes some of the finest American watercolors and ceramics of the 19th and 20th Century. The Museum presents a wide range of activities including permanent, temporary and traveling exhibitions, studio art classes for adults and children, a Docent program to provide guided tours and lectures, and numerous special events.
