SAN ANGELO, Texas (AP) – First lady Laura Bush on Thursday will present a national award to the San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts for its contribution to the sparsely populated West Texas region it serves.
The 2003 National Award for Museum and Library Service and a $10,000 check goes to the museum that began in a fort and strives to educate about art in a 14-county area far from big-city cultural centers.
The first lady, who is from West Texas, will also honor two other museums and three libraries across the country during the East Room ceremony.
