YOUNGSTOWN A Youngstown museum announced three exhibit openings set to be on display starting Jan. 20, 2026.

The John J. McDonough Museum of Art and YSU's Center of Contemporary Art will open Misty Gamble's "Of Flesh and The Feminine," Hannah Parrett's "I Do Not Always Understand, But I Feel Desire," and Mary Urbas' curated "From WOMAN 19." 

The displays will run until Feb. 28, with a closing reception for all the exhibitions held on Saturday, Feb. 28, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.

"This exhibition explores environmental issues through eco-social engagement that is anchored in community-led development and uses art to draw the community into talking about and acting on social, political or environmental issues," Gamble stated.

Gamble is also a professor of visual arts at West Texas A&M University.

Parrett, an artist and educator from Cincinnati, explained how her work "pulls from the emotional and psychological experience of place, specifically the scale shift cadence between landscape, architecture, and domestic space."

Curator, Mary Urbas, stated that "From WOMAN 19 celebrates women and their art. I chose artists that are presenting fresh visual approaches to storytelling from the female perspective." 

The exhibitions, lectures and reception are free and open to the public. The McDonough Museum is open Tuesday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The McDonough Museum is located at 525 Wick Avenue in Youngstown.
