Dia: Beacon

On Sunday I took another trip with Mom to Dia: Beacon. Dia:Beacon is a museum for Dia Art Foundation's renowned collection of art from the 1960s to the present. It's located along the Hudson River in Beacon, NY, about an hour and a half north of Grand Central . Located in a former factory, the ceilings are high, there is lots of daylight shining in, and the collection is amazing. It was our first visit. I have to say that it was a totally easy get-away from the city and well worth it. We walked around town for a bit afterwards but were't too entertained. There was an excellent ice cream parlor where Mom got an amazing scoop of pistachio ice cream.
