Spend your afternoon with artist J. Craig Thorpe!

Join us on Saturday, August 30 at 1:00 PM for an hour-long program about storytelling and art.  Craig will share his railroad-themed art that he developed for the East Broad Top Railroad, Reading & Northern, and other organizations.  Then, Scott Becker, retired PTM Executive Director/CEO and Ambassador Emeritus, will join the conversation to discuss how the Museum’s partnered with Craig to bring works from a concept to a reality.

The program will be followed by a Q&A session with both presenters.  Craig will be available to sign prints of 1711 and 1713, both available in PTM’s store.  He’ll also have a selection of other prints with him available for purchase.

This event is included with General Admission, which means it is free for members.  Please click here to RSVP.  Non-members will be able to purchase admission to the Museum on this site so that they can quickly check-in at the front desk when they arrive for the program.
