What’s Happening at the Collin County Farm Museum?
|
Eventhough the Farm Museum is closed due to COVID-19, we are still planning for upcoming workshops. Since we do not know how long these mandates will be in place, I am changing registration rules accordingly. The current workshop fee deadlines are being canceled. SignUp Genius continues to be the platform for registering workshops; however, you will not be required to pay until the day of the workshop. We are essentially moving to an honor system for the foreseeable future. Please, do not register for a workshop if you do not intend to come and pay. IF you do register and there is a change of circumstances, remove your registration so that others may attend in your place. Hopefully, this format will allow you to register for future workshops without placing a financial burden on you. - Ms. Jenn, Museum Coordinator |

2020 WORKSHOPS ~
The only advertising for Farm Museum workships is through Facebook, so "Like" the page if you have not already. Our Facebook page is: www.facebook.com/CollinCoFarmMus and check our events page for updates. We release a month of new programs the LAST FRIDAY of each month. Also, if you cannot attend a class, you can gather a group of friends and family and schedule a private workshop. If a workshop is full, join the waiting list on SignUp Genius because if enough people are on the list - a second workshop can be scheduled!
