If you’re in the Boston metro area (like me this weekend), and specifically in Dedham, MA, check out the Museum of Bad Art, located in the basement of the Dedham Community Theatre. Since 1995 it has proudly displayed found and donated especially-craptastic paintings right next to the men’s bathroom (only a standing bulletin board separates the two). The “descriptive narrative” for each piece is a great bonus:
Sunday on the Pot With George
Acrylic on canvas by Unknown
22″ x 37″
Donated by Jim Schulman
Can the swirling steam melt away the huge weight of George’s corporate responsibilities? This pointillist piece is curious for meticulous attention to fine detail, such as the stitching around the edge of the towel, in contrast to the almost careless disregard for the subject’s feet.

Awesome. Have fun and cheer extra loud for Helen for me.
