Benefit for Palmer’s Sister City March 28th, 2011
Received this from Melissa Jenski of the Palmer Museum of History and Art. Sounds like something everyone in Palmer should attend.
On Sunday, April 3, 2011, from 2-6 pm, the City of Palmer and Palmer Museum will come together with your help to raise money in support of the Japan disaster relief efforts. Celebrate our sister city and the Japanese culture through art, music, food, and language during an afternoon of activities, exhibits and performances. Come support a great cause while having fun! For questions about the event please call the Palmer Museum at (907) 746-7668 .
See the Mayor’s official letter and call of support to the community here. Consider donating an item or service for the silent auction to help raise additional funds.

We are looking for numerous volunteers to help out the day of the event with setup, clean up, and staffing at various locations.
