One of the things I have not taken advantage of in life, which I should, is art. Specifically, visiting art museums. I just never think about it really and then something shows up on my social media feeds and I'm like "I should go see that." So, one of my goals this year is to go to some art museums. They are usually free unless there is a very special exhibit going on. We have several good museums in Greensboro and the surrounding areas that I need to visit and experience.
This weekend, weather pending, I am going to the North Carolina Museum of Art with my BFA family. We are meeting for lunch and then going to explore the museum. I am quite excited about that. I have never been there before which, at 50, is a real shame. Looking at their website, they have lots of fun exhibits. It will be a nice way to pass the day.
We have the Weatherspoon Museum here in Greensboro on UNCG's campus. That is close by and I need to see what they have going on. There are several museums downtown that are worth looking into. The Reynolda Museum in Winston Salem I have never been to either. So, my list is growing. I have several friends who have pieces in the Alamance County Arts museum that I want to go see. I have been there before several times, and they bring in incredible exhibits.
There are lots of opportunities for me to check this off of my list. And hopefully, this will be something that I will carry with me into my future. I need to support these kinds of places before they become extinct, which is a real possibility in our country right now. We shall see!
