Join us for a kid-friendly tour of the Egyptian exhibits at the Kelsey Museum. We will begin by reading aloud In Egyptian Times, written by Kate Davies with illustrations by Alfredo Belli, then explore the galleries to find the artifacts pictured in the book. This tour is great for our younger visitors, ages 4–7. All children must be accompanied by an adult.

About In Egyptian Times: “This is a delightful picture book that brings to life a busy day in Egypt, long ago. A little boy hurries off to school, acrobats tumble through the crowded market, and crowds gather by the River Nile to watch the Pharaoh coming home . . .”

This event is free and open to all visitors.
