The Kelsey Museum is extending its weekend hours! Starting tomorrow (Sunday, May 5), we will welcome visitors from 11 AM to 4 PM on Saturdays and Sundays. We hope these hours will make the museum more accessible to visitors.
Inscribed textiles, or “tiraz,” had several functions throughout the medieval Islamic world. While some were worn to communicate status, others were used as burial shrouds, bestowing blessings upon the deceased. #NationalTextilesDay
Dr. Valentina Limina is presenting on her post-doctoral project, RELOAD (REthinking Liminality Open Access Data) at this evening’s FAST Lecture. This event takes place from 5:30 to 7 pm in Room 125 of the Kelsey Museum. Learn more: myumi.ch/5ykry.
Join us on April 5 from 2 to 3 pm for a drop-in tour all about entertainment and leisure in the ancient world. Visitors can unwind while learning about the Greek Symposium and Roman bathing and dining practices. Learn more at: myumi.ch/xqw8j.
The Kelsey Museum extends a warm welcome to Bruce Worden, our new illustrator! With more than two decades of expertise in publishing, scientific illustration, and exhibit design, he comes well-equipped to bring history to life through his art. Welcome, Bruce!
The final FAST Lecture of this academic year, “RELOAD: A Survey Project in Northern Tuscany (Italy) Investigating Ancient Landscape Complexity and Liminality,” is Thursday (5/2), 5:30 to 7 pm, in Room 125 of the Kelsey's Newberry Hall. Learn more: myumi.ch/5ykry.
This #ArtifactOfTheWeek comes from a burial loculus from Palmyra, Syria. This funerary bust (1980.1.1) dates to 200–225 CE, when the area was under Roman control. Busts like these were uncovered in various burial vaults, where they were placed over individual interment niches.
Beginning on Monday, April 29, the Roman Provinces and Special Exhibitions galleries, located on the second floor of the Kelsey Museum, will be closed for construction. Work is expected to be completed by Wednesday, May 22. Learn more at myumi.ch/e6Q1M.
Registration is still OPEN for Camp Kelsey, a summer writing camp and mythmaking adventure for middle schoolers! 🏺✨ Learn more and secure your spot at myumi.ch/G411q.
