The Walker Art Center-A Minneapolis Jaunt
Yesterday, my daughters and I headed to Minneapolis for a quick tour of the Walker Art Center and Minneapolis Sculpture Garden.
The image of the Spoonbridge and Cherry by Claes Oldenburg has become an unofficial symbol for Minneapolis since it’s installation in 1988.
Most of the Walker Center was closed for reconstruction, leaving just a few special exhibits open.
Even, their construction signs are creative!
It was a fabulous day to browse the sculptures outside.
Not surprisingly, my favorite place was the gorgeous flower garden…
It was overflowing with color and comfortable benches!
The next time you travel to Minneapolis, why not try an afternoon at the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden. If you like Modern Art, try the Walker Art Center--just make sure it’s open for business!

Stunning photos. Keep up the good work.
I’m originally from Minneapolis and the spoon with the cherry takes me right back home! Thanks for sharing. Great photos.
Amazing – don’t you just love ART? The spoon with the cherry is my favorite! Thanks for sharing.
As much as I love art–I love ice cream sundaes more–and the combination–delicious!
My favorite was the flower garden. Nice photos. Sounds like you had a good time 🙂
