Our studios are open for children to make Audio CD Cards for Father's Day on 6/9 and on 6/11 through 6/17, noon to 3 p.m. (no appointment necessary). We'll conduct an interview about the person the card is for and record it on an audio CD that can be decorated, affixed to a special card, and brought home that day as a Father's Day gift that will be cherished for a lifetime. Purchase of a CD Creation Card Kit from the Museum Gift Shop is required and proceeds benefit SLB programs for youth and families. Our thanks to National City for sponsoring this year's card making project.
