The Broad + kids in tow

The Broad Museum

A couple weeks ago we had a fun day, Sunday at The Broad! Being in the presence of contemporary art royalty blew my mind.  I was so impressed by the Broad's enormous collection all housed under a massive architectural beauty.

I finally uploaded some pictures...so up we go!
