CAM Look | Hats by Mr. John | 7/3/20

Welcome to #CAMLook, your daily dose of the Cincinnati Art Museum. Each weekday, a staff member or volunteer will be sharing an object from the permanent collection and posing questions for discussion. Please check back at 10 am every day for a new work and a new conversation. Today, Chandra Obie Linn, our Textile Conservator, shares her love of hats & Mr. John.
