FOOD FOR THOUGHT
ABOUT THE LUNCH & LEARN PROGRAM
Fall brings colorful leaves, pumpkins — and the start of the Prairie Museum’s lunchtime program series, “Food for Thought.”
Food for Thought is a free lunch and learn program that takes place at noon every 3rd Thursday of the month from October thru March. Events take place in the Garvey Education Room at the Prairie Museum of Art & History, 1905 S. Franklin, Colby, Kan. Space is limited, and we have a new, automated reservation system. Please save your spot by filling out the form at the end of this page. We are no longer taking telephone RSVP’s. If you are not registered and you attend the gathering without a reservation, you will not be served a meal.
All of the programs are free to attend and include a light lunch, provided by our local sponsors. Please contact Executive Director Randy Mathews if you’d like to host or sponsor lunch, or if you’d like to suggest a guest speaker.
