Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami
One of the biggest changes from this road trip is my willingness to check out museums. I used to view museums as a waste of time cause I didn't have the patience to really look at the art.

This post is about Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami, which has made my shortlist of great museums.
