The Museum of Deaf History, Arts, and Culture, 455 E. Park Street Olathe, is offering several Grace Bilger original paintings for sale. Grace and her husband Charles were long-time members at Olathe 1st UMC. Grace taught art at Kansas School for the Deaf where Charles was a long-time teacher and coach. Grace was hearing and Charles was Deaf. They are the reason our church began interpreting worship services into American Sign Language.
