  Arts in the Cathedral of Church of the Saviour in Cleveland Heights is pleased to be chosen as one of 100 venues nation-wide to exhibit works of renowned artist and designer Viktor Schreckengost in celebration of his 100th birthday. 
  Viktor Schreckengost of Cleveland Heights, Ohio, was born in 1906, and earned a reputation as a leader in 20th-century ceramics and industrial design. A teacher at the Cleveland Institute of Art for over 70 years, he also maintained a full-time design career. Well known for his 1930 Jazz Bowl commissioned by Eleanor Roosevelt, which is now considered an icon of the Art Deco era, Mr. Schreckengost also created slab-form ceramic sculptures that helped elevate ceramics from a craft to an art form during the mid-1900’s.

In honor of his 100th birthday in June, 2006, a national series of over 100 exhibitions will feature his work in museums, businesses, and a variety of venues including The Sculpture Center.
