Work Field Trip: Ai WeiWei Art Exhibit on Alcatraz

It was nice to get out of the office and go on a little field trip for work today.  Instead of heading to the office, a few of us from the Marketing Team went to Alcatraz to check out Ai WeiWei's art exhibit to get some inspiration and a fresh breath of air.  It was cool to see an art exhibit within a former state penitentiary and I appreciated the meaning behind each art installment.  I think it's definitely worth it to take a visit to Alcatraz to see, hear, and read the artwork for yourself.  My favorite pieces were With Wind and Stay Tuned.  The art exhibit runs till April 2015.
