]]> Museums are always a good place to explore art and history of a new country you’re visiting, and if that country happens to be Venezuela, here’s a couple you should check out in its capital of Caracas.

The Museum of Fine Arts

If the neoclassical building of this museum isn’t enough to impress you, their collection of ceramics and ancient Egyptian art certainly will.

National Art Gallery

The National Art Gallery is located in close proximity to the previous museum, and it houses an impressive collection of works of art by Venezuelan artists.

Caracas Museum of Contemporary Art

Fans of modern art shouldn’t miss a visit to this museum, especially since it features the works of such artists as Pablo Picasso, Claude Monet, Vasili Kandinski, and Andy Warhol.

Children’s Museum of Caracas

Mis papás se conocieron en el museo de los niños. Si, entre esos colores, máquinas, y las miles de preguntas incesantes de chiquillos, allí se encontraron. Mi papá enseñaba sobre la electricidad, mi mamá la responsable del teclado de colores, y en el medio de ellos dos, toda la magia de ese lugar. Siempre pensé que hasta cierto punto, yo nací allí (o aunque sea la idea de mi), y desde que tengo memoria fantaseo con la idea de que quizás eso explica por qué los museos son el único lugar donde me siento segura o por qué nunca (en serio nunca) dejo de hacer preguntas. Hoy me encuentro con la noticia de su cierre y rememoro cada espacio y pared que se apaga, esas que guardan mis mejores recuerdos, los de ellos y probablemente los de cualquiera que esté leyendo esto. Y aunque no creo en el fin de nada, si creo en la transformación de todo. Por lo que sólo les digo que nos vemos pronto, en la misma calle, después del túnel oscuro, allí a la vuelta del teclado de colores. El lugar donde empezó esta historia.

WHY ARE ARTIST DATES SO HARD? I’ve spoken to countless people about The Artist’s Way in the past few weeks (online and IRL), and one thing really has really stuck with me. Most people have no problem committing to the morning pages, but when it comes to the artist dates, they get stuck. They struggle to make it happen or just don’t do them at all. It’s exactly where I left off on this journey the last time around too. So why is it so hard? We live in a society that praises progress, achievements + hard work. From a young age, we are taught that we can do anything as long as we work hard, push through, stick it out, achieve. Nobody teaches us that our creativity or life force is like a well, bringing forth ideas and beauty and dreams, but that this well needs to be FILLED BACK UP. I think most of us are walking around with dried up wells, and we wonder why we feel tired/overwhelmed, demotivated and listless. How can mathematics and science be instated as mandatory subjects in school, but there is no space to learn how to live life well, to care for yourself and your soul, to process emotions and hold space for others? How to enjoy and celebrate living and make time for reverie? Or is that what we were supposed to learn in “Life Skills”? (Spoiler alert: we didn’t). Where does that leave us? We don’t prioritize dreaming or time alone exploring our inner world or the world out there as much as we prioritize the things on our to do list. In fact, maybe it’s time we push the To Do-lists aside and start compiling To BE-lists? OK, that’s cheesy, but you know what I mean. Is it just me or is this a thing? Pictures and video’s from my first #artistdate: I took myself to the @zeitzmocaa to see William Kentridge’s “Why Should I Hesitate: Putting Drawings to Work.” It was a dream. (Tip: the audio guide is free!) 🎧 #PFAxTheArtistsWay

District Six Museum

60,000 residents of District Six were forced to abandon their homes during Apartheid in the 1960s. This museum stands as a constant reminder of their harrowing journey, and one of the most tragic eras of South African history as a whole.
