Grace's March Tot Spot attendees to create art treasures

Abilene, TX (February 21, 2007) - Children age 3 to 5 will get to create a one-of-a-kind piece of art as The Grace Museum plays host to tots from around Abilene and the Big Country March 1 and 2.

The program is part of the Museum's monthly Tot Spot, where children ages 3 to 5 and their parents or guardians come to The Grace to expand their large imaginations through hands-on activities and gallery games.

In March, the theme is "Youth Art Month" ... the children will take a tour through The Grace's Second Floor galleries to see Youth Art Month: A Celebration of Young Artists, and then make their own piece of art during craft time.

Tot Spot starts at 10 a.m. March 1, and also runs at 9:30 and 11 a.m. March 2.

Reservations are required for the monthly program which is the first Thursday and Friday of each month. Cost is $3 for The Grace Museum members; $5 for non-members. Call 673-4587 or visit The Grace web site at www.thegracemuseum.org to register or get more information.

The Grace Museum is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday; and from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. every Thursday. Admission is free Thursday evening after 5 p.m.
