We had a wonderful week-end beginning with a visit to the Museum of Art in Jackson, Ms. along with the new Art Garden.
Although I enjoyed all the art work, my favorite was the "Bethlehem Tree" which was inspired by the "Angel Tree" in the New York City Metropolitan Museum of Art. The collection consisted of handcrafted Italian figures found through private venues and auction houses such as Sotheby's and Christie's. It was breathtaking and I was truly inspired.
The following pictures were taken from a book I own... "The Angel Tree" which gives the history and beautiful pictures of the actual Angel Tree at the Metropolitan Museum of Art....and The Bethlehem Tree was as beautiful as the original.
" And unto us a child is born"
"The Son of man shall send forth his angels..."
We left the Museum and headed to Thalia Mara Hall to see the "Snow Queen" ballet inspired by The Hans Christian Andersen Classic. Ballet Magnificat was founded by Keith and Kathy Thibodeaux attracting dancers from professional companies worldwide to spread the word of Jesus Christ through dance. The ballet was magnificent with beautiful music, gorgeous costumes and talented dancers...
The end to a wonderful week-end
