"I am Katie, the Education Manager at Saginaw Art Museum & Gardens. As you may know, we have a great program called Arts for All, and we are partnered with the Saginaw ISD. With the program, students can sign up to be members for free and make the arts accessible to them and their families.
I want to invite students from St. Charles Community Schools to the museum on Thursday, September 12, anytime after school until 7:00 pm. All St. Charles K-12 students and their families can come to the museum for free, get signed up for Arts for All, do a scavenger hunt, and get a notebook and pencil. Of course, all your staff and faculty could also come for free that day.
