Last Wednesday we visited the Crocker Art Gallery. Though I was quite skeptical about visiting an art museum with young boys, we had a pretty good time. You can read more about that trip here. The thing we most enjoyed was a piece of art that you can walk through. It plays with light and mirrors. See if you can guess from these pictures how big this artwork is:

Voila. Not as big as you may think. Thanks to Debbie at Delicious Baby for hosting Photo Friday. Be sure to visit there to check out more travel photos.
What a cool discovery! My kids would love checking this out, too.
How cool! I love that gallery space with all of the big windows.
This is a very cool art space and your boys seem to be enjoying themselves. I also love the beautiful light in the museum.
Very cool! I love it when I am worried about taking my kids somewhere like an art museum and it goes relatively smoothly and they end up having a great time.
what a great place!! i love taking our daughter to art spaces – she brings out her sketch pad and goes to town!
It is a surprise to see how small the installation actually is! I do like pieces like this that have a more interactive element…looks like your kids were pretty fascinated with really getting “into” this art
