I have read quite a few PDX blogs that have posts mentioning the Portland Art Museum. A lot of you out there think the place isn’t run very efficiently, some say they wasted money during the remodel and it seems a lot of us agree that the museum is too expensive. It is for me.

Well if that’s the case, then tomorrow is your day. Monday February 20 is Fred Meyer Free Family Days at the Portland Art Museum. (INFO HERE!)

I know some of you are going to start bitching again about the museum. Bigger museums in other major cities are cheaper. Why is it free only one day? Why is it free on a Monday and not on the weekend? Blah, blah, blah.

My answer to that is, I don’t know. What I do know is; I got my free ticket, I got the day off and I’m going to spend it with some art. If you’re one of those people that has a bone to pick with the museum now’s your chance to stick it to the man.

I know a lot of you are angry about the museum’s policies and politics. If you are one of those people may I kindly suggest that you call a truce with your disgruntled feelings for one day and go enjoy the art, because regardless of everything else the art in the museum is there to be enjoyed, admired and celebrated. Why not take this opportunity to see the art for free and then the next day we can all go back to our bitching.
