“OMG this past weekend we decided to add this to our weekend Halloween festivities. Oddly enough as an artist myself, I have not taken time to check out the local art museum since moving back to my hometown March of 2021. Rest assured we will be getting a membership and this will be a regular activity or destination for us going forward. The staff was as friendly as anyone could wish for. The art was absolutely breathtaking. I am so excited we decided to go to this event! Winning!”
-Brit Allen, from our annual Halloweeni Jamboreeni
