Wadsworth Atheneum

On Friday, May 6th I took a trip to the Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford. My purpose was to go there, find a painting or sculpture which I figured would be easy to write about for my extra credit paper for my Art History class and then leave right after. I wasn't planning on staying there for a while, however, once I got there I found it really interesting and intriguing to go through every floor and check out the different pieces of work from different styles of art. Some were really amazing and inspiring, others were confusing to decipher but interesting in their own way. My favorite was the contemporary art room, just because that's my style, but a lot of the other rooms were cool. The European and American Art are definitely worth looking at too! Oh and they're doing renovations/ I think adding on, so that'd be good to check out when they're finished! So if you're bored one day and like museums, you should visit, it's only 5$ with a student ID

TOMS shoes

There was an event last week here at Eastern, for TOMS Shoes in the student center BTR room. Blake Mycoskie, the creator of this brand came in and shared with us his inspirational story of how it all started and the process he had to go through for it to evolve. I LOVED his presentation and I think everyone should buy a pair of shoes to support "One for One" every shoe sold, a second pair will be given to someone around the world in need of a pair of shoes. How awesome is that?! Plus they sell some with a white canvas, which means you can decorate your TOMS any way you'd like. Everyone should visit their site and check it out, maybe order a pair of shoes.. Or two!
