Garst Museum Preview Party ... Tonight

Greenville’s Garst Museum is announcing a Preview-Fundraiser for the benefit of the museum and its educational programs. The PREVIEW part is to introduce the return of Annie Oakley’s guns and her Russian cape, which was presented to her by the Russian Czar when she was on tour in that country. These items were on loan to another museum and are home again at the Annie Oakley Center.

The special Preview Party Fundraiser is Friday, June 19 tonight from 7:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. at the museum, 205 N. Broadway, Greenville, Ohio. There will be food and music by J.R. Price as well as a chance to see the new exhibit of Annie’s items. Donation is $20.00 each person. The FUNDRAISER part includes a Silent Auction (one example: OSU Football tickets!) and a “Super Sure Shot Raffle” .
