GO GET A HOT DOG
The Art & History Museums of Maitland (Website) is hosting its Spring Open House this Friday, May 8, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., and it’s free.
The evening takes place in the museum’s gardens, with live fiddle music from Sharon Hartmann playing old-time Appalachian, Celtic, and bluegrass. Studio artists will be on hand in the art studios showcasing their work, with art demonstrations, and the museum store will be open for business. The student art sale features ceramics, mixed media, and paintings made by current students.
