Plan Family Outings to the Museums on the Boulevard!
"I'm bored."
"Why can't we rent another video?"
"It's raining again!"
Grumbling like this echoes in most households this time of year. By midsummer
many children become restless, pools lose their lure and TV controls too much
time. Couples grow tired of trekking to the 'rivah,' and many lack either time
or funds to travel. So what is an entertaining, affordable alternative?
Enjoy fun-filled family
outings to the Museums on the Boulevard (MOB)!
Excitement and fun at museums? Good
times here at home? Yes, the seven museums and attractions along
Richmond's Boulevard offer enjoyment for all ages. One visit dispels the
myth that all museums are stodgy, formal and "adult only"
gathering places. Rather, these destinations are welcoming and friendly as
they feature interactive exhibits, intriguing children's programs,
personable educators and lively community events. All are close to home,
and parking is easy. The cost is comparable to a movie ticket - and with
some attractions admission is free!
Most importantly, the Museums on the Boulevard present fascinating
subjects, ranging from history and science, nutrition and nature, to
current trends and popular arts. Families and friends enjoy quality time together; and, as an added
bonus, they gain understanding about their own lives and life around them.
Before the holidays end make a date to visit the Museums on the Boulevard.
