Milwaukee Public Museum
Happy New Year to all!
Trying to find something to do with winter winding down and still having a bit of cabin fever?
I would love to suggest the new exhibit at the Milwaukee Public Museum:
The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Bible are on exhibit for a limited engagement: Opened on Jan. 22nd and it looks like it runs through June 10th.
It’s a beautiful exhibit and you are transported back into a time long ago. There are special lectures you can partake in, please view schedule.
Make sure you make enough in the day to view the other featured exhibits in the museum (examples: Cabinets of Curiosity; Numismatics! Selections from the MPM Collection; It’s all in the details: The Legacy of the Fifield Collection; and the newly permanent exhibit Wisconsin Archaeology: Pieces of the Puzzle). There are additional ones to review on the Milwaukee Public Museum website prior to getting to the museum.
Also, don’t forget the wonderful IMAX that is in the building too! “Wild Oceans” and “Mummies: Secrets of the Pharaohs” are showing at this time. “Under the Sea” will be starting, per MPM, on March 19th, 2010.
It’s a great place to spend the day and an even better way to stay warm!
