In 2020, a tornado hit the museum causing roof damage and not all the original tiles from the 1929 roof were able to be reused. Local artists are creating a works of art using one of the original blue slate tiles from the museum’s roof. These painted tiles are then auctioned off to help with a fundraiser to benefit care of the museum’s permanent collection.

Bring your I.D. (we card!) and money for food trucks. Participating food trucks will be Mejia’s Mexican Food and Ópa Greek Coffee!

Painted Tiles will be displayed in the Lower River Gallery of the Masur Museum from October 16, and online at www.32auctions.com/MasurRaisetheRoof25

Bidding takes place online only and will end when pARTy 318 ends at 8:00 pm on October 23.
