Vesterheim Norwegian-American Museum has announced that Decorah Bank & Trust Co. has agreed to sponsor a third year of "Free Thursdays" at the museum.

Because of the gift from Decorah Bank & Trust Co., every Thursday in 2011 there will be free admission to the museum.  The museum will also stay open until 8:00 p.m. on Thursdays and a month will offer a special Thursday event.

"We are pleased that Decorah Bank & Trust will continue to sponsor Free Thursdays at Vesterheim," said Vesterheim Executive Director Steve Johnson.
