Local Museum Exhibits RC President's Collection
A collection of authentic sports uniforms, photographs and other memorabilia, most of which are signed by the players, is on display through February 27 as part of the "African American Sports Legends" exhibit at the Ethnic Heritage Museum in Rockford. The collection, which includes items from legendary players such as Walter Payton and Magic Johnson, is on loan from Dr. Robert Head.
The museum is a local treasure, celebrating the cultural history of a unique blend of ethnic groups. Join them at Cliffbreakers on Sunday, February 20 for "Love and Marriage," a fundraising event that will include dinner and the showing of ethnic wedding dresses and traditions.
