ooh MCA...

as i mentioned in a previous post, i really enjoyed the design, information, and accessibility of the MCA's website. now to say the same thing about the museum itself... it's a bit different. some people may not feel the same but i enjoy the layout of the museum. some galleries are very open and some are more intimate. i like the variety. i found that navigating through the museum was pretty easy. what it lacked is the great information that was available on the site. especially all the wonderful interactive activities and education information. i wish there was more, a lot more hands-on activities for both adults and kids. contemporary art can be a bit intimidating and not easily absorbed just from viewing. i think viewers would benefit from physical interaction with the art. also, i feel a better space could be provided to display and embrace all the education resources and events. if you're a regular museum goer i feel this museum is great. for newbies, may be a bit lost, uncertain, and informed properly about the works.
