McMullen Museum of Art at BC

Tonight, I ventured back to my alma mater to visit BC's McMullen Museum of Art (located in Devlin Hall. The Council for Women of Boston College hosts private viewings of the different art exhibits that circle through McMullen and I finally attended one of their events, joining experienced art viewers Jen and Amy - experienced since they've attended the previous exhibitions for the last year and a half.



The exhibit was actually pretty interesting - it was called The Book as Art - Artists' Books from The National Museum of Women in the Arts. Book was very loosely interpreted in some pieces, as it could be a baby dress embroidered with the words of Anne Frank or one that looked like a salad. This "book" was one of my favorites - from what I remember, each "slice" or page of the book had a different pie recipe:


It was nice to be on campus, reminisce about the good ole days, admire how pretty Devlin looked at night, and enjoy free wine, cheese and petit fours.
