The Cincinnati Art Museum in Eden Park was designed by James W. McLaughlin, and the infobox lists no architect. The Cincinnati Museum Association, incorporated in 1881, ran the museum. The infobox gives only 1881 as established, which is the museum's founding. The building opened and was dedicated on May 17, 1886.
The article calls the style Romanesque revival and names no materials. Daniel Burnham designed the Schmidlapp Wing in 1907. Wings added in the 1930s gave the building its rectangular shape, and the Adams-Emery wing followed in 1965. The Cincinnati Wing opened in 2003.
A 13 million dollar restoration came in 1993, and general admission to the permanent galleries has been free since 2003. The museum is open Tuesdays through Sundays and holds over 67,000 works.
