The High Point Museum will featured at the High Point Farmers and Arts Market on Saturday, August 13, from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. The Museum will be demonstrating Quill Pen Writing.

"We feel it's important as a community museum to support other organizations," Michael Scott, Curator of Education at the Museum, said. "And we can highlight the kinds of activities you can experience at the High Point Museum."
