The other night Sarah and I took advantage of the fact that museums are free on Thursday evenings and went to the National Gallery of Art. We had a wonderful experience and were deeply impressed by the unique building which itself is a work of art. It includes two or three wonderful atriums like the one pictured above, including one with a fountain on glass, so that you can stand underneath it from one floor below. You can also see the stories high Christmas tree they had in the entryway. But the highlight for me was the giant baby's head in the entrance of the contemporary art section. I still can't get over how cool this thing was in person! Maybe I'll post a video of it so you can get a better perspective on what it looks like.
