New Britain Museum of American Art
Hello class!
I had a visit to the New Britain American Art Museum yesterday. The drive there was pretty smooth with hardly any traffic. That's truly what i fear the most is sitting in congested traffic. Anyway, I was pleasantly greeted by to older ladies at the front desk who were kind enough to help me with any interests or questions I may have had. I know most of you ended the tour with eating within there cafe but I did the complete opposite. I ate first then began my visit. Oh How I marveled at all the esquite paintings. I especially liked the Walter Wick Games, Gizmos, and Toys. Had I known they had such a display for children I would have brought my two nieces with me. What really captured my attention was the room of paintings of these Islamic women and children all dressed in their traditional clothing with Islamic writing all over them. It kind of looked like a Henna design nevertheless, I found it fascinating.
I also paid a visit to where they have a exhibitions captured from the disasterous 911. It was moving that I could barely see the photos without my eyes watering. If any of you in this class had a person you knew in the 911 tragedy, my heart and prayers go out to you.
