I got to spend the better part of today at the #MinnesotaHistoryCenter exploring their permanent exhibits: #ThenNowWow, which houses the #Grainland #exhibit and #Babetheblueox; #WeatherPermitting an homage to #Minnesota's bipolar #climate and finally #MinnesotasGreatestGeneration, on the #depression and #war era. I also saw the #WeAreHmongMinnesota exhibition but I mostly focused on the #ModernSpirit #showcase. It's an incredible #collection by #NativeAmerican artist #GeorgeMorrison. A huge chunk of his work is borrowed from the #MinnesotaMuseumofAmericanArt. If you get some time, I highly recommend seeing this exhibit as it closes tomorrow. P.S. Thanks for #exploring with me, @rebeccazenefski (I just #love her!) #MNBucketList #onlyinmn
