Bring your Miami spirit to the Museum Center for Toasted Rolls
You do not need reservations for the closing Miami Week event at The Museum Center Sunday, Oct. 1. It promises to be a great family experience. Admission is only $10 and provides access to the Cincinnati History Museum, the Museum of Natural History and Science and the Children's Museum. In the main entrance we will be making Tuffy's famous Toasted Rolls, including ongoing demonstrations of their creation. Toasted Rolls are free to all, so come hungry! There will also be presentations by faculty members, displays of Miami artifacts, film presentations and other Miami touches. University President David Hodge will speak at 2 p.m. and present his vision for Miami. I hope to see everyone there, full of Miami spirit.
