This exhibit was in 2013 which is the last time I was at the Columbus Museum of Art. I will dedicate this post to PROCRASTINATION:::: Know the true value of time; snatch, seize, and enjoy every moment of it. No idleness, no laziness, no procrastination: never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. Philip Stanhope
Lunch first then a look at “Strings Attached” a tradition of Czech puppets. I may be a little ‘late” in doing this post, but I’m usually not late for lunch.
“With more than 140 puppets and related set designs, masks, and costumes, dating from the 1850s to the present, Strings Attached explored the rich history of puppetry in the Czech Republic and its influence throughout the world.”
