Very nice selection of permanent exhibits and the addition of the Block building has provided many people the opportunity to see some wonderful artists.
I have loved the Nelson since the first time I lost myself in its exhibits. As soon as my granddaughter it a little older, I plan to take her there to give her a taste of all the beauty in this world.
Our Family have enjoyed going to the Gallery, often. Especially, years back we appreicated the "Eternity Mirrors. In fact, we enjoyed the art of this display so much, , that I had l long wall and 2 sharp corners meeting the long wall in over my bathroom double sinks and I covered all with mirrors and when you looked at either ennd of the corners....It was like Eternity !
There are many displays to enjoy the day at the Nelson-Atkinds Museum !
