Nelson-Atkins Museum Opens New Egyptian Galleries

Don't forget to join us at The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art on Saturday, May 15th. 

We'll meet at 12 pm in the Rozelle Court. You are welcome to have lunch. Their prices are very reasonable. A menu can be found here: http://www.nelson-atkins.org/welcome/Restaurants.cfm. 

Afterwords, you may visit the new exhibit or join us for a special lecture at 1 pm: "In Conversation with Dr. Peter Lacovara"-Art and Science in the Exploration of Egypt. More about this lecture can be found here: http://www.nelson-atkins.org/calendar/EventDetail.cfm?id=13075 It is a free event, but tickets are required. (I have several extra tickets if you have not been able to RSVP yet)

Activities are also happening during the weekend of May 8: The Museum celebrates the opening of the new Egyptian galleries with a two-day event that includes performances, talks, demonstrations, and hands-on activities suitable for the entire family! All programs are free and open to the public. Here is more info about this weekend. http://www.nelson-atkins.org/calendar/index.cfm?view=day&current_year=2010&current_month=5&current_day=8&SortAudience=&SortEvent=
