Rowan T + Bellevue Arts Museum

How awesome it was to discover an incredible museum right under my nose! I live within just a few miles of BAM but had never been before. I went to see the Clay Throwdown and was taken with a work that had two cornucopias yielding food and then guts onto a pile below. Also, I found a gallery of photographs near the museum store in which I knew every single artist! They were all students, teachers, or alumni from my high school.
