Don’t be surprised if I blog and chat a lot more on Bower’s Museum.  I finally took the plunge and became a member.  Then, I inquired about becoming a docent.  My application just arrived and I must fill and send it out immediately to make the deadline.  Orientation is in mid-August and training begins in September.  I hope to be a docent in training this year.  It is a six month wealth of learning experience and probably a great place to meet like minded people.  I am truly excited about this possibility and will keep you posted.

Just an example of what is displayed in the permanent Chinese exhibit spanning the Han to Qing dynasties, over 20 centuries of small artifacts and informative groupings.
