The Friends of the Muscatine Art Center is a non-profit organization that raises funds each year to support educational programs at the Muscatine Art Center. The volunteers who serve on the Friends board make many events possible. The Annual Ice Cream Social at the end of June, family holiday events, and fundraisers, such as the "For the Love of Art" Tea, are all organized as Friends events.
This year some special celebrations are being planned around the 50th anniversary of the opening of the Laura Musser Museum and Art Center. Additional volunteers are needed. If you have ever considered being a Friends board member or volunteer, now is the time to get involved.
The Friends board meets on the second Thursday of the month at 5:15 p.m. in the kitchen of the Musser Mansion. If you are interested in attending a meeting, please call Melanie Alexander at 563-263-8282 or email malexander@muscatineiowa.gov. The next meeting is scheduled for February 12, 2015.
