Chicago

It has been a while since I last posted! March has been a busy month with a trip to Chicago right in the middle of it. I was able to attend the National Art Educators' Conference this year, held in the
"Windy City". Just returned and will share a few of my images from the trip.

The Art Institute of Chicago had an exhibit of Vincent Van Gogh's bedroom paintings. The three versions of the painting were exhibited together.

 We also visited the Cultural Center where we saw the StrandBeests on display. and enjoyed the gorgeous architectural elements of the building.

I got the chance to make the "Beest" move!

 Millenium Park

"The Bean"

I'm in this reflection somewhere!

 The Field Museum of Natural History

 Along with the sightseeing, we attended workshops at the conference, tried a variety of different restaurants, and enjoyed the company of thousands of art teachers who didn't need telling why Art is vital in our schools!
