10.15.19 First ICR Event

Two weeks ago, I along with 3 other of my fellow Butler Students went to the Indianapolis Museum of Art. This was our first event with Benny leading the way, what we did was go around and get a brief introduction of all the different cultures we have on our wonderful Earth. One of the main things that I learned and was able to see on first hand experience was how relative and influences o other cultures have on each other. Benny briefly touched on the dynasties and how when one came along they brought a little with them from the previous, but not everything, and this pattern happened every time a new ruler took over. While walking all through the museum, this being my first time to it, it was a lot to take in and learn about all of these cultures I have only heard and learned about through a textbook, but to see and actually look at real artifacts that were made 2000 years ago was very special. I keep looking forward to see what the next adventure is on this process of learning more about different cultures and about other people and their communities, and I look forward to keeping the rest of the class posted to those who are unable to attend and learn from outside the classroom.
