To the Museums and Back!!!

Getting around to cultural destinations just got easier:

2BNB (To the Bottom and Back bus) has announced a new route that will run on Saturdays to take you to a variety of cultural and historic sites around the city: FREE!

They have a great GPS system you can follow on your phone to find out where the bus is located and be able to plan when to catch it!

Why not try it with some friends this Saturday and start off at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts where you can experience Africa during a super fun "Celebrate African Art" Family Day"! (FREE and will include performances by African drummers and more! Noon - 4pm)

Don't forget your Student Membership ($10!) so you can get in to see Dynasty and Divinity: Ife Art in Ancient Nigeria for free!
