If you’ve been wanting to see the magnificent thing that is “Chihuly: Utterly Breathtaking” at the Montréal Museum of Fine Arts, you can procrastinate a little longer: The show has been extended one week, to Sunday, October 27.

But I recommend you don’t wait, because think of all those other people who will try to cram in during its final days. It’s always better to have elbow room when looking at art, and that’s particularly true when a show has been curated as a total, get-lost-in-it sensory experience. This is what I wrote about it back in July.  

It’s hard to get away when there is so much to see and do right here in Vermont, but sometimes, you really should. This is one of them. Don’t forget your passport!
