Ever want to sleep at a museum? Neither did we, until we went to 21c. We recently stayed at the 21c Art Museum Hotel in St.Louis as well as the 21c in Bentonville, Arkansas and had the best time. 21c locations combine actual contemporary art museum gallery exhibitions which are free and open to the general public. Read our hifructos.ecom exclusive interview with 21c's curator Alice Gray Stites by clicking above.

The always interesting Evie Hatch investigates the age old wound/vulva/sauron? Symbologies found in art history.  ”This is a huge subject and I’m only just glossing over it here really, but Christ’s gender-fluidity and the idea that an image could be both devotional and erotic is so interesting to me.”  @evie_hatch

Our friends at @office.of.collecting are taking their world of tiny treasures (hidden in hundreds of nondescript drawers) on the road via a converted trailer. 
We highly recommend saying hello to them as they venture up the west coast!
