Trip to the Nelson-Atkins Art Museum
2024-12-15 13:00 - 14:00
To those going on the Nelson Art Gallery:
The Nelson graciously moved the start time of our tour on Sunday, Dec. 15 to 1:30pm. I’m
hoping this allows our participants to attend Mass, stay for the all-parish meeting, and then migrate to
the Nelson. Bonnie will provide the “makings” for sandwiches in the Family Room after Mass. We
will have cold cuts, bread and condiments, Rice Krispie bars, granola bars and chips. We’ll
also have some bottled water. A suggestion: as soon as Mass is finished, make your way to
the “Family Room” and get your lunch/snack. Then return to the pews for the Parish Town
Hall meeting. Our tour will meet at the museum entrance in the Nelson parking garage. Docents will meet us there. If you have a museum membership, you can park free. You can park on the street or the lot across the street. Parking in the garage is $10.00. Pair up with membership folks!
