DAVENPORT, Iowa (KWQC) –Putnam Museum is inviting families to embark on a cinematic journey during the Summer Family Film Series from Aug. 16 to 18 in the GIANT Screen Theatre.

The Putnam is also excited to extend a call for artists for the 2nd annual Garbage Glam Recycling Fashion Show to be held on Oct. 5 from 6 to 8:30 p.m.

Interested artists can sign up here. And tickets to attend the affair are available here.
Later in the fall, Putnam Museum will be hosting the first-ever 48 Hour film festival on Oct. 18 to 20.
