What do you do after an exhausting week, without a dime to your name? Go have a great time at the Nelson-Atkins Art Gallery in KC! When something is free we don't value it like we should. The Nelson-Atkins Art Gallery is one of the greatest art history museums in the world. Did you know that they only show certain pieces every 40 years due to how fragile the art is? So it is quite possible that the Monet vase and flowers picture on paper you saw last week will not be out again until your children are getting ready to have grandchildren (personally speaking of course)! Everyone should make the trip several times a year.
They just opened the Native American Indian exhibit. It wasn't like anything I'd seen before. It was really beautiful. Art was always purposeful and added to useful, everyday items. We came from there inspired to make art a part of our lives. We have all been given talents from God that we need to be using to make things bright and beautiful.
Susan and I went there on Friday. On our way out, we decided to make shadow art on the wall of the Bloch building. I love how she is up for anything! I finally set the self-timer on my camera and joined her. The museum guards were fascinated too!
