Tucson - January - Art Museum

The first full weekend of the month, Bank of America Visa card owners get free entry in to the Museum of Art.  I had heard that they had completely redone it and that the new exhibit was awesome, so we checked it out.

Unfortunately, I accidentally deleted all of the pictures on my camera but still had some shots on my phone, albeit not the best.

The main exhibit is Dress Matters


This hat is made entirely out of hat pins
Masks
A really cool clay piece
and outside some nice sculptures



We also get access to the historic buildings.  First stop is the J. Knox Corbett House, Mission Revival style architecture built in 1907



Gary and I can picture ourselves in this house
Arts and Crafts furniture
and collections of everyday household items






Next is Casa Cordova, one of the oldest buildings in Tucson

It is an example of a Sonoran row house, a common building style in the late nineteenth century
It is also home to the seasonal exhibition El Nacimiento.
An elaborate diorama of the birth and life of Christ
