Title: Bodies Exhibit - Pittsburg
Post by: GeneF on Sep 07, 2007, 10:16 AM
Just saw that this exhibit is going to open at the Sportswork on October 8 and run for seven months.

DW, DD, some friends and I saw this exhibit in Boston last year.

Highly recommend going to it.

It has to be one of the most educational exhibits I have ever attended.

The exhibit is extremely well done with a lot of information given about the different parts of the body.

There is nothing gross or unpleasant about the way this is presented.  We saw people of all ages at the exhibit including some school groups.

The human body is truely amazing.

My in-laws saw it also. Had great things to say, and said it was tasteful. Said there wasn't any compromising positions, so to speak, and was geared to be educational.

We saw it a year ago or so in Atlanta.  It was amazing.  It was a little creepy at first, but easy to get past that.

We saw it last year in Philly.  I thought it was the coolest exhibit I have ever seen.  After we went through DH asked if I would ever consider donating my body for something like that.  I have to admit, I did think about it for a while.

We got a notice in the mail that its going to be down in Branson sometime soon. I'd love to take the kids to it, but $$$ is really short. Their grandma, however, wants to go down there before too long so maybe ...

It's here now in Detroit.  Been here for awhile now.  I still haven't seen it because I refuse to go to Detroit.  To dangerous regardless what the "officials" tell you.

Gene we went right past it when we went to PNC park for a ball game, but didn't have any extra time, so I missed it.:(
