Be part of history as we unveil the new Egypt Galleries: Life and Afterlife. Explore 4,000 years of ancient Egyptian history through extraordinary artifacts and interactive displays revealing the lives, beliefs, and enduring legacy of one of the world's great civilizations.
Join us to celebrate this monumental milestone 100 years in the making. Be among the first to explore our newest galleries, including the rare opportunity to step inside one of the Penn Museum's most remarkable archaeological treasures, the 4,300-year-old Tomb Chapel of Kaipure. Experience a traditional Egyptian hand-puppet theater, learn to write hieroglyphs, and enjoy music, storytelling, games, and hands-on activities for all ages.
