Norton Simon Musem

In order to meet certain requirements of the ART Merit badge Troop 516 went to the Norton Simon Musem in Pasadena in February 2009. While there we were able to view art from the 14th - 16th Century, 17th - 18th century as well as the 19th century. Several pieces by Impressionists and Post Impressionists were on display such as Monet, Renoir, and Van Gogh. I think the boys enjoyed the Asian Sculpture Garden the best. Troop 516 also wants to give a special thanks to Jordan Daines who was our counselor for the Art Meirt badge. The boys did their best to copy some of Jordan's artwork . It wasn't until after we told her whose paintings they were that she was able to recognize them. Again thanks Jordan!
