The heart of man plans his way, but the
Lord establishes his steps.
Proverbs 16:9
You don’t have to play hooky to enjoy a day of creativity. Chances
are you have the day off, so celebrate this short school vacation (public schools must be off, not sure how crowded it will be?) with a
visit to the museum. Experiment and play with art making materials in
the lobby. Guided tours at 1 pm and 3 pm, filled with activities and
games to help the whole family learn more about art. Admission is free
for kids and their families who are too cool for school.
