Colorado Museums Taking Part In 'Museum Store Sunday'
DENVER (CBS4) – Once the turkey gets cold, it's time to start thinking about holiday shopping. Of course, there's Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday, but now several Denver museums are joining a national campaign for Museum Store Sunday.
"They were looking for a way to promote museum stores as a place for unique items that help support their museum's programming and focus," said Greg McKay, the Associate Director of Retail Operations at the Denver Art Museum.
From jewelry, to glass, to games and toys for kids, the Art Museum gift shop offers a little bit of everything.

Along the Front Range, six museums are taking part in it, including Denver Art Museum, Clyfford Still Museum, Kirkland Museum of Fine & Decorative Art, Four Mile Historic Park, Golden History Museum & Park and WOW! Children's Museum.
