Welcome to Museumpalooza, a project that provides a non-traditional starting point for people to learn about museums and all the cool stuff inside of them. 

On the Road Blog

When I travel, I go to museums...and I usually bring Tim the T-Rex with me. Here are the collections of interesting stuff we've seen, learned, or experienced on these adventures.

MINI-MUSEUMPALOOZA: DALLAS EDITION (2015)

Andrea Duffie

Museums are always more fun with (human) friends – especially when the museum visit coincides with your birthday week, and especially when the friend in question is our favorite partner-in-crime, K-Jo!

While there are other museums in Dallas that could have been included in this trip, we limited our day to the Perot Museum of Nature & Science, and the Jackson Pollock: Blind Spots exhibition at the Dallas Museum of Art. The Crow Collection and the Nasher Sculpture Garden will be visited and documented on a day when we didn't spend so long devouring my birthday brunch.

We accomplished our first goal: figuring out where we're going! (It was harder than you'd think.)

Tim the T-Rex got a little star-struck today; he'd never met such a famous model before. #JurassicPark #Museumpalooza

Is it a rock? Petrified wood? No – it's PALEO-POO! (Also scientifically called a "coprolite".) #Museumpalooza

Tim the T-Rex was dazzled by some of the Jackson Pollock paintings in the Dallas Museum of Art's Jackson Pollock: Blind Spots exhibit.

We also enjoyed the DMA's International Pop exhibit, although looking at Wayne Thiebaud's Salads, Sandwiches and Desserts made Tim hungry...

Couldn't have asked for a better pre-birthday weekend than a mini-Museumpalooza around Dallas with my favorite partner in crime! #bestestbestbuds

Although of course, a few of my Fort Worth friends had something to say about our choice of location...

Duh. Now, when's second breakfast?
