American Visionary Art Museum


We had a great time on Saturday, celebrating our anniversary! We decided to spend the day in and around Baltimore's Inner Harbor area. One of the highlights was visiting the American Visionary Art Museum.


No picture taking is allowed inside the Museum, but there were plenty of fun things to photograph all around the surrounding outside of the museum, such as...

A giant bird and nest...

a giant whirligig...

a secret hideaway...

A blue giraffe...

Cute little birdies along the rim of a planter...

a beautiful decorated tree trunk...

Vicki, I hope you are feeling better! Thanks for helping me even though I know you're feeling sickly.

Ooh I went there a few years ago when living in Virginia ... it is the most inspiring place! It is so worth the trip for anyone in the mid-Atlantic region.
