9. I visited the Henry Gallery at UW every time they had a new exhibition.

during my years there. I go back frequently. I like Art.

The Henry was founded in 1926 as Washington State's first art museum by Seattle entrepreneur Horace C. Henry on the principle that art stimulates inquiry, fosters knowledge, and builds a healthy community. Henry donated the collection he built with his late wife Susan of 178 works of art, along with funds for construction. The Henry Art Gallery opened to the public on February 10, 1927.

This is simply how you butter up big Donors. It's craven, and it's everywhere.
