A Must See

I just returned from a once in a lifetime experience which is a must see for all! Currently at the Franklin Institute Science Museum in Philadelphia is the amazing Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs exhibit; the largest and most important Tut exhibit ever assembled. Come face-to-face with 130 artifacts. Of the 50 major pieces directly related to Tut, all but two come directly from his tomb; the remaining objects were found in the graves of other 18th dynasty royals (information courtesy of the FI brochure).
Hurry, the exhibit runs through September 30th. This would be a great field trip for students as we return to school in September. If you want more information, contact the Franklin Institute (see link below).
