Sponsor a Brown Bag Lunch
MassMu offers opportunities to sponsor Brown Bag Lunch programs. We will try to work with you to find a topic of interest.
About the Brown Bag Lunch Series
The Brown Bag Lunch Series began at the Massillon Museum in 2003.
Bring a sack lunch or purchase from Greatness Cafe. The program will begin promptly at 12:10 p.m. and conclude at about 12:50 p.m. to accommodate guests who attend during the lunch hour.
Bates Printing sponsors the Brown Bag Lunch Series. It continues on the fourth Tuesday of each month, from January through October.
The event, which is held in the Museum's Gessner Hall, is free and open to the public; no reservations are required, but seats fill early. The Massillon Museum is located at 121 Lincoln Way East in downtown Massillon. For more information, call the Massillon Museum at 330-833-4061.
