Evie has been having a great summer at the National Gallery of Art taking advantage of their Summer Series, which has taken her to experience the paintings and sculpture of Italy. Every visit, she gets a kick out of making a wish by throwing a penny in the fountain.
Evie puts on her imagination and pretends to step into the picture - she opens her ears to imagine what the people are talking about in Canaletto's Entrance to the Grand Canal from the Molo, Venice.
During the next session, she listens to the story "The Mysterious Giant of Barletta" before admiring the sculpture Giuliano d' Medici by Verrocchio.
Later she made her own sculpture - a delightful snow-woman with some fantastic accessories.
Finally, after her last Roman Holiday, we joined Lara and Sam for a delightful picnic on the Lawn with Emily, Ellie, Daddy and Mom. Gotta love DC!
