Of course who knows if the Three Bears had superpowers or if Hansel and Gretel were secret agents?<\/p>\n Cost:<\/strong> The event is FREE and will be held in the Museums Lobby. All artists who participate in the Jam will get free admission to get into the Museum as well.<\/p>\n Goodie Bag:<\/strong> The CAM bookstore will also offer goodie bags for a $2.00 donation that will include: a bottle of water, sweet treats, \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcmood\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 pencil, 15% off coupon, raffle ticket and other surprises.<\/p>\n SCHEDUAL:<\/strong><\/p>\n 11 am<\/strong> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Museum Opens.
