The Smithsonian Museum is made up of nineteen museums spread out over an area in Washington DC. My favorite museum of all that we visited was the Air and Space Museum. Then my next favorite museum was the Udvar-Hadzy Center. At the Udvar-Hadzy Center it costed six dollars to take a test flight in a plane, which I found really outrageous because it was six dollars for a test flight for like five minutes. Although overall it was a really cool place to visit and I was blown away by how big some of…

Even without stepping into the museums themselves, an initial sense of what they are about can be felt. A waterwheel turns across Historic Tredegar, repurposed from Tredegar Iron Works that overlooks the James River. The Virginia Holocaust Museum provides a stark contrast as it blends in with other multi-story buildings in downtown Richmond, easy to overlook even with the parking lot that provides a sign for the museum. The museums both represent pivotal moments in history, whether specific to…

My visit to the Tampa Museum of Art took place on the 4th of February 2017. The Tampa Museum of Art is located at the heart of downtown Tampa and is home to some of the most widely acclaimed creative works of art in the United States.

I was pretty anxious from the beginning because I didn’t know where to start, but after speaking with a security…

After our trip to the zoo, we were given a tour of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. This tour was customized to fit what we are attempting to understand as a class. We learned about the history of animals within art, not just in modern days, but throughout history. After this tour that gave us a lot of knowledge about the depiction and symbolism of animals, we were given the task to find 3 pieces of art that “spoke to us” and describe our reaction to these works. To me there were many pieces of…

in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Beginning their collection in the 1880s, the Met now carries an extensive compilation of the Japanese arts.

Housed in the Eastern Asian section of the Met, the Japanese installation is nestled in a very long but smaller gallery, in comparison to the larger ones of this museum. Upon entering the…

The art museum that I was able to visit is called the Virginia Museum of Contemporary Art. This is a fairly small museum. It exhibited a peaceful ambiance. The arts it included were mostly paintings. Overall, I was not impressed with the museum. The museum displayed artists with a lot of bright colors that really jumped out at you. I personally prefer classical art over contemporary art. I feel that classical art has more of a calming feel to it. I also really like art from the Hellenistic…
