WACKY WEDNESDAY

6/26/13 Wacky Wednesday.....it's that time of summer when we head to the art gallery to learn about artists and create our own art that is "similar" to that of the "masters." "My" Molly does a great job co-ordinating the activities for the kids. So.....Shug and Pop-Pop, both like to go to WW with 6 yr. old Owen. Our big day ended w/ everyone going to Theater Memphis for "Singing in the Rain"---a MUST SEE!!! Shug & Pop-Pop went with friends and Molly & Owen had a mommy-son date night.
WACKY WEDNESDAYS----DON"T MISS---FREE ADMISSION --10-12
Aspiring artists see movies & create Claude Monet flowers as they learn about the artist.
This month's activities are co-ordinated with the Carroll Cloar exhibit.
Snaggle-tooth mails his picture postcard at the Carroll Cloar  interactive gallery for kids.
Play with color and light--- important aspects of art 
Art books provided--more inspiration. Owen's fave was Magritte's Marvelous Hat  with 
transparent pages adding another level of surrealism.
Mommy & son "date night" at Theater Memphis. 
GREAT FINALE for a Wacky Wednesday full of "the arts."
Owen "meets" Lydia Hart, the STAR of the show and a friend of his mommy.
Ah-h-h, that we all should have more Wacky Wednesday's in our lives. They're there. Glorious things are hidden in the ordinary days. The more we celebrate those, the more extraordinary they become.
As the Belgium artist, Rene Magritte (1898-1967) said, "Everything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see."
I say, "Celebrate the ordinary! When we celebrate the ordinary, the extraordinary becomes visible."
