I didn't get enough pictures from our trek inside the museum at Crystal Bridges, but I did get this little assortment, including the giant self-sculpture that captured students' attention.
By this time, other patrons had entered the museum complex. Individuals and groups were mingling in common areas, and my 17 students and I meandered through them with ease. Once again I was impressed with the respectful way that students observed the artwork. I was able to trust them with a little more freedom in galleries, and they were able to be free and still stay with the group. They appreciated the black-and-white gallery, the self-portraits, and the abstract pieces.
It's still a shame we couldn't spend more time in the colonial and early American history section due to its current renovation.
