Barn Blast 6/17/11 – Sneak Peek Tour for Wish List Donors

We are almost open!!!!

In just a few days, we will take official occupancy of our new museum home! Like all home construction projects, we still have a lot of work to do to get our home ready for full use in August. But we will be using our new space this weekend, for our Rummage Sale (lower level only). The Karel Hendee workshops on July 21 and 22 will also make use of our new, lower level class area. And Karel’s evening of music, poetry and inspiration will take place in the future barn gallery on July 22.

Sneak Peek Tour Planned for Wish List Donors

A bench, a chair, a toaster oven, a rug….it’s the little things that will make the new museum complete. Little things add up, and some of them are beyond our project budget. So, we want to say “thank you” with a behind-the-scenes tour of the museum for all of the generous donors who have purchased items from our June 2011 Wish List

If you have donated to our Wish List, please join us Monday, July 18th from 4 to 6 p.m. for an open house and tour of the facility. If you haven’t donated, it is not too late! Click on the attachment to this Barn Blast, or send an email to info@wiquiltmuseum.com with the Subject: Wish List and request a copy of the list. Then simply send us a check for the item(s) of your choice to: WMQFA – Wish List, P.O. Box 562, Cedarburg, WI 53012.

A Wish List donation is your admission ticket to the sneak peek tour!
