#throwbackthursday: Big Ol’ Birds’ Nests at the Museum, 2009

Back in 2009, the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts had this installation by artist Patrick Dougherty. When my kids were small, I used to take them to museum a lot in the summers, since it was air conditioned and far more enlightening and appealing than the playground at Chick Fil A. While we usually went straight inside to the ArtWorks area, they were super stoked about these big ol’ birds’ nests.
