Why don't we come here more often, I thought after a recent visit. It's less than a mile from our house, never crowded, and street parking is free on Sundays. We went to the Asian Art Museum with a friend last November in celebration of an annual Indian holiday called Diwali. They had several tables set up where someone would help you write your name in Hindi (Indian) and turn it into a button. There were different rooms where traditional Indian music (think, sitars) was being played by a family for families -- their rendition of Row Row Row Your Boat was unexpected! Yoga for kids was being held in another room.
Among the regular exhibits, Jack and I found one room that was empty and spent some time there writing chinese letters with water and on red pieces of paper that were intended to be hung on the tree installation in the room.
