Informative, behind-the-scenes tours will be led by Joe Imholte (Director of Special Exhibits and Public Programs) and by Dr. Ed Fleming (Curator of Archaeology). The event will begin in a scenic gathering room where you will enjoy heavy appetizers and network with new and old friends.
The ticket price includes access to other museum galleries which you are also free to explore, including a timely exhibit about the social construct and history of race in the United States called RACE: Are We So Different?.
