Folk Art Museum in Baltimore

If you ever get a chance to visit, you must go. It’s called the American Visionary Art Museum.

Here are some outdoor pictures from a recent visit.

There were many memorable exhibits but I was most amazed by a collection of art by people who spent their lives institutionalized. The day we were there hundreds of Post Secret postcards were on display.

Their website is pretty cool too!
