The Bascom is an amazing resource to such a small community! You can take classes, go to community events, and see really phenomenal exhibits completely free. If The Bascom wasn't here, we'd have to drive at least two hours away to get a similar experience. But since it is, we have this gem at our finger tips everyday! Very awesome!
