Some recent gallery additions:
The Renwick: On March 13 & 14, The Boyf and I were in DC for the going-away party for some friends. We happened to stay a block from the Renwick and went twice in two days.
Wake SPCA 3K Dog Walk: Katastrophes, Mr. Pink Eyes, Pants Wilder, Anna, Busty and I participated in the Wake County SPCA 3K dog walk as Team Awesome. We raised hundreds of dollars, because awesome is what we do. We also got to see hella cute dogs, though none could hold a candle to our own leader, Dante.
The Renwick is so cool. I wish you could take pictures of the stuff downstairs too.
So do I. (I was actually witness to someone being thrown out for doing so. Did I tell you that? It was pretty awesome. The guy tried to drag me into it and failed.) However, I did buy a book and DVD about the downstairs exhibit that they had (and will have for many more months). It’s all handcrafts made by Japanese-Americans in the WW2 internment camps. Crazy.
Wait, why can’t you take pictures of the downstairs?
Downstairs is where they do temporary installations and the rules depend on the installation in question. For the Japanese-American detainee folk art collection, photography wasn’t allowed (probably in no small part because the gift shop sells books and DVDs of/about that collection, and yes of course I bought one of each).
