Our second day of camp with all the kids was great! We learned new skills, new knowledge, and new ways to have fun!
That’s all for day 2 of classes. See you tomorrow!

This Saturday at the Museum was especially fun since we were celebrating National Ice Cream Day! We made some tasty ice cream treats using only a couple simple ingredients.
Ice Cream in a Bag Recipe:
1 tbsp. sugar
1/2 cup milk or half-and-half
1/4 tsp. vanilla
6 tbsp. rock salt
1 sandwich plastic food storage bag (Ziploc, Glad, etc.)
1 quart-size plastic food storage bag
Ice cubes
How to Make It:
1. Fill the larger bag half full of ice, and add rock salt. Seal the bag
2. Put milk, vanilla, and sugar into the small bag, and seal it.
3. Place the small bag inside the large one, and seal it again carefully
4. Shake the contents until the mixture is ice cream, which should only take a few minutes
5. Wipe off the top of the small bag, open carefully, and enjoy! Yum!
Another great feature of our S@TM program is guided public tours through the wedding dress exhibition! The Curator of Ethnology and Textiles, Mei Campbell, led our visitors through the gallery.
We hope everyone had a great time making ice cream for National Ice Cream Day! The Museum is always a great place to cool off when the temperatures in Lubbock get over 100!

This month’s Sat. @ the Museum highlighted the new exhibition “They Weren’t Always White—Wedding Attire from the Museum’s Collection.”
Families were invited to be fashion designers for the afternoon and craft a unique outfit for a paper doll!
At 2:30, the Curator of Textiles, Mei Campbell, led a guided tour through the Wedding Dress Gallery. This will be an on-going event throughout the year!
This was a fun project for a Sat.; we hope to see you in July for “Take Me Out to the Museum” on July 2, and our “We Scream for Ice Cream” themed S@TM on July 16!
