American Visionary Art Museum

Last Thursday Christiane, Kerriann and I spent our day doing a little sight-seeing in Baltimore.  We chose Federal Hill as our neighborhood of choice since I haven't ever really had the chance to spend much time there, and Christiane was really curious about the American Visionary Art Museum.  After hearing good reviews from a few of my friends who live in the area, we decided to check it out.

It was definitely worth the visit.  It was unlike any museum either of us had ever been to, and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for something a little bit out of the ordinary.  Not really appropriate for children (who can read) but it was fine for Kerriann to ride around in her stroller.  She was definitely the only child there but was very well behaved so no one seemed to mind!

Photos were not allowed in the museum (which is too bad, because there was so much I'd like to share!), but there were a few "props" outside that you could take photos of, like this old bus decorated with pieces of glass and buttons.

There was also a garden in the back of the museum with some random sculptures if that is even the right word for them.  This is one of those places that you really just need to see for yourself because there is no good way to describe it!
