During the last two weekends of June, the Museum showed its support of local communities and farmers' markets by giving away FREE, recycled and reusable grocery totes to marketgoers. What a hit!
At the City Market Farmers' Market and the Downtown Lawrence Farmers' Market, over 1000 shoppers signed up for the Museum's e-newsletter and were rewarded with a Fresh Art bag to carry home their local goodies. Many thanks to the market hosts and our team of extraordinary volunteers who made both events such huge successes!
Thousands more will get their chance to pick up a FREE bag as we roll up our sleeves for these upcoming events:
July 12--Shawnee Farmers' Market 7-4 p.m.
July 15--Zona Rosa Farmers' Market 4-8 p.m.
July 22--Crown Center Farmers' Market 7 a.m.-1 p.m.
Come early because they go fast!

I picked one of these up at the City Market when the Museum was there and I have been using it ever since. It is a great addition to my arsenal of 'green' bags to take to the grocery store. I hope everyone takes the time to pick one up (and get some fresh fruit while you're at it).

My "fresh art" bag has also been used in a multitude of ways since picking one up at the City Market. It garnered a lot of positive attention at an outdoor movie at Crown Center two weeks ago!
