Second Thursdays more like First and Only Thursday. Stuffy and pretentious.
Amon Carter Museum of American Art的点评
点评:We recently went for the Amon Carter Second Thursdays. I love art and am trying to be a part of the community and also just got married/moved out so I’m wanting to hang out with my mom more. We went together and showed up about 6 min after it started. We figured it was come and go but we were told everything already started but they can check us in. Everything was already full and there was no seating to do anything. Caricatures were booked until 6:30 and all we could do was walk around. My mom was carrying a cup of water and was told she “absolutely could not!!!” Go up the stairs with it. We weren’t even trying, we were just trying to read the sign behind her. People were stuffy and pretentious and looked at you funny if you even dared make a comment on anything. All activities were either full or like the self portrait activity that was advertised as from 5-8, had a sign stating it was for the first 200 only and we got a couple dirty looks for even walking into there. I really would not recommend this event if you want to experience art alongside joy. There was literally 0 joy or creating for the sake of creating. Will not be back.
翻译:我们最近去了阿蒙·卡特画廊的“每月第二个星期四”活动。我热爱艺术,也想融入社区,而且我刚结婚/搬出去住,所以想多陪陪妈妈。我们一起去的,大概在活动开始六分钟后到了。我们以为是可以随时来去的,结果被告知所有活动都已经开始了,不过他们可以帮我们登记。所有地方都满了,根本找不到座位。漫画肖像画的预约都排到六点半了,我们只能四处走走。我妈妈拿着一杯水,却被告知“绝对不能!!!”拿着水上楼。我们根本没想上楼,只是想看看她身后的指示牌。人们都很拘谨,很自命不凡,如果你胆敢说点什么,他们就会用异样的眼光看你。所有活动要么已经满了,要么像那个宣传是五点到八点的自画像活动,明明有个牌子写着只给前两百人,我们只是走进去就被人狠狠地瞪了一眼。如果你想在享受艺术乐趣的同时体验艺术,我真的不推荐这个活动。这里完全没有快乐,也没有任何为了创作而创作的成分。我不会再来了。
