The intersection of car & art: Dream Cars at the High Museum of Art

The car I drive is never something that I’ve worried about too much; as long as it gets me from point A to B.  My father has the car bug, that desire to get the newest, latest vehicle that can do things slightly better than last year’s model.   He didn’t pass that gene to me.   I am however, into the weird and creative.  Dream Cars, the new exhibit this summer at the High Museum of Art is an art exhibit for gear heads, surrealists, engineers and pop culture people.

Think Outside the Box at Children’s Museum of Atlanta

If you’re a parent think of Christmas morning or some other time when you child receives gifts that might require big boxes.  After they rip the present open, yell at the gift and then play with it, what do they do?   They play with the box.  The bigger the box the better.  If they can sit in the box or roll their toy cars through that’s awesome too.  Think Outside the Box is the new exhibit at Children’s Museum of Atlanta and is boxes, boxes and more.
