La Quinta Cove

Friday evening (11th) saw a throng of folks at the grand opening of the “PT Barnum & the Circus” exhibit. with lots of activities.  The exhibit itself (sans the fancy activities) runs till the end of the year, so you have plenty of opportunity to visit and revisit.

Allison Frederick, Exhibit and Program Coordinator at the Coachella Valley Historical Museum (Indio) assisted with the mounting of this diverse exhibit.  Allison is also a circus historian.  Listen to her give an introduction: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8mDqLAsrOk
