Subject: 11 RE: A visit today?
Date: July 15
Dear Mr. Somchai,
Thank you for letting us know about your visit this afternoon. While we do usually require groups like yours to give us at least one day's notice before arrival, we will luckily be able to accommodate you this time.
Since you mentioned the Over the Mountains exhibition that is normally located on our third floor, I have to warn you it is currently on loan to the Meehan Museum in the United Kingdom. There is related merchandise available in our first-floor gift shop, but if the exhibition is the main attraction for your group, you should consider rescheduling your visit for August, when it will be on display here again.
If you decide to come anyway, we will look forward to seeing you this afternoon.
Best,
Vera Gordan
Operations Manager
Corlingdale History Museum
SORRY!
The exhibition normally housed in this space is currently on loan to London's Meehan Museum. It is scheduled to reopen here on August 1. Ask our information desk how your party can get free admission if you would like to return to see it then. We apologize for the inconvenience.
