Museum Monday: Free Tours, Vote for PPIM, + More

MUSEUM MONDAY:

Miraculously and wonderfully, the slipstream from the Extremities show will not quit. Photographs keep surfacing that reignite the memory banks and the emotional pull of the whole series of events. I’m feeling fit and intending on keeping up with my drumming so I’m ready for whatever comes next!

We had a visit from Jenn of Punk Rock Saves Lives and I’m thrilled to be able to display and offer their services both in the Museum and upstairs in the AirBnb!

In addition to the 30/60/90 Choose Your Discount codes that are replenished, the museum gift shop is 50% off in person this week, too – I just decided to make Saturday at 11am + 2pm FREE tours – but you still need to reserve your spots, please, using code FREEFORALL. If you have been planning on visiting but haven’t been able to swing it – then let’s go! You can register for either of Saturday’s free tours HERE.

There are LOTS of other things going on (the Patreon is kicking ass!), but I just want to remind you to vote for us in the Chicago Reader poll by going here! It’s easy to say that a competition to identify the best museum (or any cultural/artistic endeavor ) is basically flawed, BUT it’s still a THING to be listed in the top 3 – and this would make three years in a row – so please consider doing that for us!

THANK YOU – we still don’t know exactly where this is going – but this is one hell of a ride!

Best,

Martin
