Musing At The Museum: Chimczuk & AWE

May is Museum Month and after having a great time visiting the historic Maison François Baby House, it was a good reminder that we still needed to take a trip to the Chimczuk Museum and Art Windsor-Essex.  

There was so much to explore on all 3 levels, so I just compiled some of my favourites art pieces and exhibits that really caught my eye.
