Our unofficial mascot, “Snuggie,” 🐴 stopped by to say hello to Kathy and Kat on a beautiful Friday! Kathy is one of our awesome Visitor Services Associates, and Kat is a dedicated, longtime Museum volunteer. Together, they’re among the friendly faces who welcome our guests and help make every visit memorable while sharing the stories behind our historic collections and exhibitions. 🙂
Thanks for stopping by, Snuggie!
