Having lived in KC for 4 years now, I have never gone to the Belger. I really don’t have any excuse of why I haven’t gone but also not knowing a whole lot about the Belger I guess played its part too.
Field trip number 2 for the seniors, it was fascinating to see the works of an 86 year old woman. Quilts I would definitly have to say that it’s in the realm of craft, but its really about story telling which I found it intriguing. She really captured certain American history wether it be pop culture or sports, it really told the story of that person.
Before taking the tour upstairs, the stories and information of Belger was really interesting. I learned a whole lot just from Mo talking to us about borrowing art and how delievering art works. I didn’t think much of what it would cost a person if they wanted something delievered across country or across few states. The big collection of art/painting really amuses me and makes me curious to see what prints and painting they have.
