There were mice held within the museum for no purpose. It made me incredibly sad to see these poor mice being mistreated within a clearly too small cage. For no reason?

Not even mentioning that half the things in the museum weren't work...

Museum of Art – Where Architecture Meets Creativity The Museum of Art is one of the first places I’ve ever seen that feels truly designed for creativity. The building itself is modern, bold, and inspiring, with an architecture that’s not just beautiful but also feels alive — like a space meant to spark imagination. Inside, the layout is just as impressive. The way the space is organized makes it...
