On November 15th I went t the Metropolitan Museum of Art. To start off I would like to say how enormous this place is. In the museum I explored the many interesting galleries and exhibits. One thing that I found most interesting was the American wing. This wing had quite a number if important historical artifacts and antiques that are probably no where else in the United States. Another exhibit that really caught my eyes was the ancient greek and roman sculptures. Greek mythology and history always fascinated me and seeing these works of art up close and personal was quite an experience. These were sculptures that I had either read about or only seen pictures on. These pieces seemed to be crafted to perfection, and all of their details perfect. However something else that caught my attention from the start was the, pay what you want, pricing model. This huge museum is operational based on essentially donations, and it is meant to be accessible to anyone who wanted to go. This museum was also huge and I am certain that I did not finish exploring it. Which is what will motivate me to go again. Next week I will be going to see an opera there as well. It will be for my music class, so it will be another great experience
