Blog 17:Almost Last Post of My HS Career ^_^

I think that there has been such an increase in numbers because of all of the things mentioned in the prompt. That people, obviously, want more things to be able to do with less money. It’s very difficult to be able to go to the theater or go to the movies, especially in New York where tickets for the movies are usually around $15 per person. Not including the higher taxes and then food and drink. It gets expensive around Sunnyland, IL when people go to the movies. I think I’d be broke if I lived somewhere else! I think that education and prominence also has something to do with it. People are learning more about art, and it’s getting promoted more so people want to see what all of the hubbaloo is about. A lot of new artists take everyday things and transform them into what can be nicely called conversation pieces. I personally don’t happen to like much modern art because of this fact. It doesn’t capture my attention, exactly to see a person made entirely out of used gum wrappers, but it certainly is a conversation piece. I’m not entirely certain what is meant by shows, if that means the artwork involved or if there’s something going on to showcase it, such as a band playing or the person travelling with his/her show. I know I have a love of museums, and a few museums have lowered prices, or had special days that are cheaper, and I love going on these days. I think there has been an increase in membership, because with art being “in” again, people want to stay “in the know.” And, art is amazing of course!
