Art museum’s legacy will be its inspiration | Letters | June 25


Letter from the Bainbridge Island Review - Jun 25 2010, 11:06 AM

With the unveiling of the art museum’s final design, my two school-age daughters have started talking about what it will be like to have an art museum within arm’s reach.

When we took in the museum’s curves and skylights and really started imagining its contents, we realized that we most look forward to its potential to inspire. 

Similar to the effect IslandWood has had in sparking an understanding and appreciation for our environment, the museum will help my kids soak in the treasury and tradition of creativity that surrounds us.

We still have some time to wait before it’s built, but looking forward to the museum has already become a very happy and exciting thing around my family’s table.
