LONG LINES FOR THE CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION, PHARAOH: KING OF ANCIENT EGYPT:
There were long lines for the centennial exhibition which opened on March 13 and will run through June 12, 2016.So far I have visited the exhibition four times and have only been able to study the art objects in four of the ten galleries. There are over 150 objects -- some over 5,000 years old. A review of the exhibition will be posted later.
PHARAOH FOR A DAYAT THE CLEVELAND MUSEUM OF ART:
I had a button saying "I love my Mummy" pinned on to my blue Indians cap. I also had a card from the MIX event pinned on to sweater. In addition to the attachments, the atmosphere in the Cleveland Museum of Art on April Fools Day, 2016 was one that definitely made me feel like a "Pharaoh for a Day".
