Thursday night we took the boys to the "Jeff Smith Bone and Beyond" exhibit at the Wexner Center for the Arts. The boys have thoroughly enjoyed Mr. Smith's books; as we toured the gallery they inspected each panel and would dig out their copies to show us how each panel eventually looked. They were very much engaged.
In addition to the Bone gallery, we enjoyed Mary Heilmann's "To Be Someone", Jane Hammond's "Fallen" and the obligatory respite in the gift shop. While playing with a giant Fone Bone doll, we learned that this particular one was owned by Mr. Smith himself. I am not as quick as I once was, but this particular time I recognized the opportunity before us. We had the boys each write a note to Jeff Smith, and then left it in the back pack of his doll. I hope he likes them. :)
