visiting the best museums they had to offer. All of them inspired me in one way or another but only one of them in particular actually motivated me to continue to become a better artist. The Cartoon Art Museum‚ or CAM‚ brightly stood out among the rest because at this museum I was surrounded by the icons of my childhood that originally inspired me to pursue an art career.

for my ethnographic essay was The Museum of Modern Art‚ commonly known as the MoMA. I traveled to the museum on Saturday‚ March 6th‚ 2017 and arrived at 3:11 pm.
