Coming in 2010!
King Tut is coming to NYC and then returning home to Egypt!
We are planning a trip to NYC especially for this exhibit. See the 18-inch Tut coffin that is elaborate, gorgeous and gold, crafted to hold the boy king's liver. NYC is the last stop on this tour which began in 2005; it's been 32 yers since it was in NYC last. This exhibit features more than 130 ancient Egyptian objects selected to give the public a snese of King Tut and the times in which he lives.
The exhibit opens April 28, 2010 and we will be offering discounted tickets shortly, although we do not have a selected date at this time. Ticket prices vary for weekdays and weekends. If you are interested, please contact the office and let us know your preference.
