Had a fabulous afternoon at the MoMA today. Am now a member of both the MoMA and the Met, which should help with achieving the gallery visits. Between the visits and the painting ID on freerice, I should pick up a little art knowledge. Think I'll allow myself a one-week backdate to include my two visits to the Met last week.
