EXHIBITS INCLUDE TOY TRACTORS, PRE-THOMAS EDISON LIGHTING

ART is the big thing in area museums this month - look, learn or both. There are classes and exhibitions.

There is also a showing of toy tractors and, a look at how America got lit up, pre-Thomas Edison.

As they were last month, quilt shows are still big. MEMO: [For a complete list of museums and scheduled exhibits, see microfilm
