Penguins tour an art museum in Kansas City

Humboldt Penguins visit the Nelson-Atkins Museum

From the Nelson-Atkins Art Museum on Facebook:

Quarantine has caused everyone to go a little stir-crazy, even the residents of the Kansas City Zoo. So several of the penguins decided to go on a field trip to the Nelson-Atkins, which is still closed, to get a little culture.

This isn’t the only group of zoo penguins to enjoy an extra-special social excursion while the rest of us are quarantined. But they’re certainly the first penguins to prefer the work of Caravaggio to Monet.

The Kansas City Zoo also has a penguin cam so you can keep on eye on your favorite tuxedo’d friend when they’re not enjoying an afternoon of high culture.
