The work of Youngstown artist Maple Turner III will be featured in an exhibition opening Saturday at the Arms Family Museum.

Turner graduated from East High School in 1969 and spent 11 years working in the steel mills as a pipe inspector. When the mills closed, he eventually went to college to study art and theater, earning a degree from Youngstown State University in 1999.

He then became the first YSU student to be accepted at Parsons School of Design, and he earned his master’s degree from City College of New York.

In the last 18 months, Turner’s work has been shown at the Butler Institute of American Art and the Mahoning Valley Historical Society’s Tyler History Center.

The new exhibition will feature paintings of the Gilded Age homes, carriages and residents of Youngstown’s Wick Avenue and Crandall Park neighborhoods. It will also include scenes from New York City, where Turner lived from 1999-2005.

The work will be on display through December at the Arms Family Museum, 648 Wick Ave., Youngstown. Hours are noon to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. Admission is $7 for adults, $6 for senior citizens and college students, $5 for children ages 3 to 18 and free for members and active-duty military and veterans.
