The Museum

Today we went to the Museum of the North. We only saw the art exhibits, but they were great.

First we were taken to a classroom and got split up into 4 groups My group first learned about the types of art, abstract, realistic, 2D, 3D, and relief. The next place we went to we saw 4 paintings and tried to guess the names. The place after that we saw a giant outhouse covered in tons of old-fashioned stuff.

My favorite part was the last room we went to. We were looking down into a room and the walls were slanted, so it looked like you were falling in a never ending spiral. Also there was this cool room that played the sounds of Alaska.

When we got to the classroom Mr. Noon had us interview a student on their experience, and I interviewed Jake. I asked him "What was your favorite art piece?"

"The old-fashioned stuff in the outhouse was cool."

"What was the worst part?"

"I didn't like when they took us into the classroom."

"Would you like to go back?"

"I've been there a couple times but I want to go back."

If you are ever in Fairbanks I recommend you go to the Museum of the North.
