OP ART

Illusions from the Permanent Collection

February 19 - May 1, 2022

Experience Gallery

Dizzying patterns, jarring color relationships and meditative illusions have been used throughout history to excite the eye. From vintage coverlets to OP Art of the 1960s, this selection of works from the Peoria Riverfront Museum collection explores these "moving" art forms. 

OP ART features hands-on activities for the whole family.
