A Message From Catherine
Happy 4th of July! I wish you all a safe, spectacular holiday weekend! Then get ready for the weekend of July 11th and 12th, and 2 days of museum weekend fun! On Saturday, kids learn to paint landscapes with artist June Kozloski - the courtyard provides just the right atmosphere to unleash talent! Sunday is "Museum Sunday" with free admission, guided tours, and a scavenger hunt. Bring your friends and family for a cost-free afternoon. Parking is free in the lots along Park Place.
PS - Remember there is no First Thursday in July due to the July 4th holiday. See you in August!
