https://semiticmuseum.fas.harvard.edu/event/summer-sundays Free, fun
family activities allow visitors to explore arts from the ancient Near
East. Activities change daily: construct models of an Egyptian
pyramid, inscribe clay tablets, or decode hieroglyphics. Drop in for
five minutes — or 30 — to see what is new every day. Activities take
place on the first floor of the Harvard Semitic Museum. This HMSC
museum explores the rich history of cultures connected by the family
of Semitic languages. Exhibitions include a full-scale replica of an
ancient Israelite home, life-sized casts of famous Mesopotamian
monuments, authentic mummy coffins, and tablets containing the
earliest forms of writing. Story Time activities will have a reader.
All other activities are informal and not guided.
