    Dark Metropolis *enlightens*: My husband and I recently attended the "Dark Metropolis" exhibit by artist, Irving Norman. A little morbid to some, the art was extremely detailed and attractive to the eye. The colored paintings were beautiful but the black and white ones were awesome too. I highly reccomend spending an afternoon here and reflecting on our culture in Norman's perspective.

    Great experience: When I moved to Sacramento, there was a Mexican exhibition at the Museum. My experience was great. I not only got to see the Mexican Art, but the museum itself. Since then, I'm a regular visitor, specially when they have a special foreign exhibition.
