For an unusual twist on your museum adventures, Irida’s Giraffe Museum should be your first stop. A local resident donated the use of her home so that guests could enjoy her unique Giraffe collection as mush as she did. Admission is free.

You don't even have to leave home to make the most of the facilities at Avondale library. Once you've got a library card you can do all your research online from the comfort of your home. Research doesn't get much easier than this.
