Creativity Space

Have you ever been to Columbus, Ohio?  I went there last week for the very first time.  The downtown area seems really nice, reminiscent of Milwaukee, although I admit that we drove through it rather quickly.  3 co-workers and I attended a conference that was held, much to my delight, in the Columbus Museum of Art. 

One of directors told us that she wanted to make the museum more relevant to the community, so she developed a new Creativity Space.  We were given a lunchtime tour and it was a lovely, inspiring space indeed.

Materials to build objects for
the little people who live in the walls

his hands in his photos

A display that allowed me to recreate the hand-art

Where have you seen a space devoted to creativity?  If you had the opportunity to develop a space within an art museum, what would it contain?
