1. Last week, I went to an art musuem and appreciated some paintings.

2. Sometimes I spend my time appreciating some classical music.

3. Silently, we appreciated the beautiful sights.

3. is perfect English.

1. & 2. aren't ungrammatical, but they are not standard usage in American English dialect.
