WEBSITE EVALUATION
The AIC website is very easy to use and access. I will give it a 5-point evaluation.


The best part of the website is the exhibition and event sessions. Refreshing when I was exploring the website's great artwork and the sweet history of the institution.

A Sunday on La Grande Jette: This artwork reminds me of a tourist site in Ghana where I met my first love Aburi Botanical gardens 

Coronation stone of motecuhzoma ii( stone of the five suns): Gives me a sense of how ancient and beautiful the ancient day's culture looked so natural.

Cow skull with Calico Rose 1931: The thought that runs through my mind as we need to show love or express love till death do us apart and even in the graveyard we still need to show love.
