As I explored the Detroit Institute of Arts, I was amazed by the exquisite beauty of thousands of paintings, sculptures, and decorative arts from around the world. The marvelous collection spans over 5,000 years of history and features masterpieces by artists such as Van Gogh, Monet, and Rembrandt. As I wandered from gallery to gallery, I sensed that art had the power to transcend time, space, and language barriers, and evoke powerful emotions in humans. I also learned that the museum has educational programs, films, lectures, music concerts, and other events for all ages and interests throughout the year.
