Read and Look | In Egyptian Times

Join us for a kid-friendly tour of the Egyptian exhibits at the Kelsey Museum! We will begin by reading aloud In Egyptian Times by Kate Davies and Alfredo Belli—a book that follows a day in the life of a group of children in ancient Egypt. After the story, we’ll explore the galleries to find artifacts pictured in the book, including a miniature boat, a desk and pens, sandals, painted hieroglyphs, real ancient food, and Egyptian jewelry. This program is great for our younger visitors, ages 4–8. All children must be accompanied by an adult.

This event is free and open to all visitors.
