Great idea, Tammy! 

 

Is there a prize for guessing all of the stories correctly?

	How good are you at telling fact from fiction?  Do you pride
yourself on being able to spot a lie?  Or maybe you just like a good
guessing game?

	Well then, you need to come down to the Creston Museum this
summer and match wits with our staff and volunteers.  We have chosen
twelve objects throughout the Museum.  Each one has its history
presented right alongside.  Eleven of those histories are fact: the
whole truth, and nothing but.  One of them, though, is what the literary
types call "creative writing" - pure fiction, entirely made up, not a
grain of truth to be found.

	Can you figure out which ones are artifacts, and which is
artifiction?

	To take the challenge, just come into the Museum.  Regular
admission rates apply, or you can download and print a coupon from our
website <http://www.creston.museum.bc.ca/webpage/id/29>  and bring it in
to enjoy admission-by-donation. You will see all of the selected objects
during your tour.  Read the histories, make your choice, and record your
vote before you leave.

	Each Wednesday, beginning on June 1, we'll feature one of the
objects on our website <http://www.creston.museum.bc.ca/webpage/id/29>
and in I Love Creston <http://www.ilovecreston.com/> 's Daily Buzz.
Click on the links to let us know whether you think each week's story is
fact or fiction! We'll post the voting results, and reveal the
artifiction at the end of the summer.

	See you at the Creston Museum - 219 Devon Street, Creston, BC

	 

	Tammy
