Has anyone been to this museum? It is supposedly in Baltimore, MD. I tried
to google it, but it doesn't seem to have a web-site. I'd like to know what
it contains and whether it is an all day trip or just an hour or two of
looking.

Hi Carole
As usual I am a day behind in reading my email. so I hope that this
helps you plan.
I just got off the phone with Mrs. Brown who is more or less in
charge of the museum.
the Museum is in sort of a hiatus right now. It used to be down on
Pratt Street. But the
building that it was in has been condemned and the owner is in
litigation. the pieces
are in storage right now. they are looking for a new location and
hope to reopen within a year.
it is fairly small. and took only about an hour to go through when it
was up and running.
The people from the museum are running a complimentary program with art
teachers in the
county and the city, and hoping to keep expanding their program to
other counties. they will
put their website back up when they get a new location.


Millie in Md. on a miserably gray day, on my 3rd round of antibiotics
for what started out
as the head cold from Hell and is now bronchitis. So I have been
playing with sculpy making
gargoyles in bright colors because the doc says the clay dust isn't
good for me right now. and
I have gotten my bead collection out and made bright sparkly jewelry.
Today I will start
reorganizing my fabric stash. it is amazing how slowly time passes
when you don't feel well

p.s. I inadvertently sent this off originally from a different
account...and back it bounced. the new clayart system is really
working
