A Visit to the Art Museum

We are finishing up the last requirements of our school year.... checking everything off the list. As a wrap-up to our art lessons, I took the boys to the Columbus*Museum*of*Art on Friday. We enjoyed looking for examples of the types of art we've learned about (sculptures, murals, still-life, portraits, and landscapes). The boys loved the interactive kids' area. I'm seriously considering getting a membership to the museum and/or looking into their workshops and classes. There is so much to see and do. It's another gem in our city.


My favorite exhbit --- floating glass

Right now the museum is hosting an amazing 1700 year old mosaic that was just discovered in 1996 in Israel. It's impressive! And there's a great interactive educational room all about this mosaic as well.
