Arts of the Maghreb: North African Textiles and Jewelry

Until 12th October 2025

This exhibition spotlights the rich artistic traditions of Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia during the late 1800s and the early 1900s, through a display of elaborate textiles and fine jewelry in the collection of the Cleveland Museum of Art. These works introduce the specialized skills of North African artists, both Amazigh (Berber) and Arab, Muslim and Jewish, and the diverse aesthetics of their multifaceted communities. The CMA’s founder J. H. Wade II began forming the collection during his personal travels across the region, and many works are on view for the very first time.

This exhibition is made possible with support from the Malcolm E. Kenney Curatorial Research Fund and Anne T. and Donald F. Palmer.

Opening hours: Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. - Wednesday, Friday 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Closed Mondays

Admission: Free
