Kevin and I were FINALLY able to get to the Field Museum for this exhibit over the past weekend! I had been trying to figure out a day to go for months and lucky for me the run was extended. Unfortunately it closed the very next day but I've got some neat pictures to share from the
exhibit.
Like always it was a fabulous exhibit and was insanely well put together. I loved how it was really heavy on the artifacts and photos but it wasn't overwhelming where you don't know what to look at. Here are some of my favorite photos we took.
This is the official ledger that has all the items brought to the Fair accessioned. The museum nerd in me loved this artifact.
Kevin's favorite artifact was the fossil that had two bass in it!
good to know
ReplyDeleteThis looks like an awesome exhibit! I've always been fascinated by world's fairs. Just such a cool idea that people would come to showcase their inventions since there were limited forms of mass media.
ReplyDeleteI agree that the fossil is extremely cool!
ReplyDeleteI love to know more about this, i've been trying to get my son to love to visit the museum, this is awesome

I've never been there. Looks great! Beautiful outside too!
ReplyDeleteI do live about 1.5 hour from Boston and miss going to the museums out there too! Have you ever been out this way?
