Today October 8, I went to the Metropolitan Museum of Arts with my friends. There was so much people there so it was really crowded. We had to wait in line for a long time since there was so much people, but the wait was well worth it, From the first floor entrance they had gift shops, family hall and some children’s art. After I got my ticket, I went upstairs to the gallery. The gallery was filled with

 

people as well. There was people that are trying to draw a sketch of the beautiful sculptures there. There were plenty of sculptures there, some are damaged, but most of them are in good conditions. I have went to other museums before, but this is the first time I seen people trying to draw a picture of the sculptures instead of just taking a picture of it. This museum had many stone statues and sculptures so everywhere I walk, I see people taking pictures or drawing it . There was a old book in the museum and the drawings looks like w

erewolf, but it was drawn in a funny way, which actually made me laugh a little. In the museum there was also jewelries and fine looking weapons made with bronze, as well as pottery. One of my friends use his phone and basically took a picture of everything in the

 museum. He seems to like to take pictures a lot, which I didn’t really know until today. I was especially interested in the Greek and roman art section. I really like the myths and legends from the Greeks and Romans. They are all very interesting. The pottery and jewelry in that section wasn’t that fascinating as I thought it would be, but I still took my time to look through everything. This was a great experience for me because I never went to a museum of art before and

 it was really interesting for me.
