This past weekend, I went to the Worcester Art Museum. The museum was celebrating Diwali.That's why there are chairs set up. And "Worcester" is pronounced "Wooos-ta" for those of you who are not from around the area.
These girls were singing classical music.
Next stop was an interesting form of art by Shih Chieh Huang. It was pretty dynamic. Watch this you tube and you'll understand why we shouldn't ban plastic bags totally.
This next exhibition was "Rediscovering American Community of Color: The Photographs of William Bullard." You can also learn more about the collection at this website.
That's William Bullard on the left.
When I took the picture below - I noticed the chairs that were there - but I dismissed them as chairs being scattered randomly in the room. Upon closer look - I was intrigued by it.
Here is a three seater chair.
Here is a two seater.
And this one can fit 6 or 7 people on it. Aren't they just a work of art? I want one. I want one.

This below are stamps from Mexico during the Aztec culture in 1200 A.D. It was made out of ceramic. "The use of ceramic stamps to decorate cloth, walls, pottery, and even peoples' faces and bodies was a tradition that developed in early Preclassic times. Most stamps were carved with geometric designs or ceremonial symbols. Both flat stamps and cylindrical rolls were popular. Late Aztec stamps of the kind displayed here have stndardized designs and were produced in great quantities".
What 'cha looking at?
This was the view from the top floor.
