Our visit to SDMA has been a highlight of the course so far for many reasons. I absolutely love seeing all that San Diego has to offer; it is always refreshing to get off of campus and enjoy the city. I was extremely impressed with the modern art museum and thought that it had remarkable collection of pieces from all over the world. I think what made the experience unforgettable was our personal curator. He was so knowledgeable of every piece of art we viewed and his passion for the subject matter oozed through his tour, consequently inspiring me as well.
With the realities of the present day social and economic limitations, not all students will ever realistically have equal access to resources such as this wonderful museum. I feel that museums, SDMA being a perfect example, do everything in their power to be available and accessible to the greatest amount of people possible. The specialized tour that our curator created specifically for us as future elementary teachers goes to show how willing they were to accommodate our needs. It is so refreshing to have such an incredibly positive experience that truly excites you about the subject matter. This feeling of passion and encouragement is exactly how I felt during and after our trip to SDMA and I am confident that this museum will yield similar results in every student that is fortunate enough to visit it.
