Museum Minute: TerraTx Report! Actually, I need about an hour here to cover the museum part of the TerraTx Art Walk!! We had about a 2-week prep time to gather easels, paintings, clean, and arrange it all! Got it done with beautiful and amazing results. Since we are the museum, we decided to have an exhibit of Vintage Art, pre-1960! We also served cookies from vintage recipes. It all turned out so good! Around 100+ visitors stopped by from the Art Walk to see our exhibit, our mural, and our hummingbird! Thankful that we were included to participate in the Art Walk, for our amazing mural by J. Muzacz, and the hummingbird by Ryan Henry. And thanks to all who supported us!
