Spring is (almost) here. Beautiful weather, fun springtime adventures and new opportunities have arrived for students at JCU. This past weekend, Shannon Callaghan ‘22 and I took a trip to University Circle to walk around outside the Cleveland Museum of Art. A reflecting pool, beautiful architecture and elaborate statues decorate the grounds outside of the museum.

 

As seen from across its reflecting pool, the Cleveland Museum of Art stands strong amidst a grey Ohio sky.

Bushes, hedges and a stone walkway lead visitors from the reflecting pool to the art museum.

There are two paths for visitors to walk around the campus: The lower path brings visitors directly along the waterline while the higher path brings visitors through some foliage.
