KING TUT AT THE FRANKLIN INSTITUTE – SOLD OUT

Please join us as Eric Cline, chair of the department of classical and Semitic languages and literatures, and GW associate professor of classics and anthropology, presents a closer look at King Tut and Egyptian archeology. After the lecture and lunch, guests will walk over to the Franklin Institute to view the King Tut exhibit.
