The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City is the largest art museum in the Americas and the most-visited museum in the Western Hemisphere. And The Met has a fantastic series of artist biographies that both considers what inspired famous artists and encourages the creation of new works. March is Youth Art Month. What a perfect pairing! Read one (or all) today!
