I also got a sneak peek in to the modern gallery which was featuring “Design or the Modern Child”.  I enjoyed seeing designs from kids from the past and very much present.  The gallery was not open yet so we could no take pictures but it was a fun gallery for the entire family.  I cant wait to bring my kids.

The Art splash at the has a whole host of events every week all summer long.  I highly recommend heading do with the kids.  Thanks to Melinda at LookWhatMomFound for her daughter in this picture.
