GE Presents: The Mystery of the Albany Mummies

Join us as we learn about The Albany Institute of History and Art's upcoming exhibition The Mystery of Albany Mummies beginning in September 2013. The mummies and parts of their coffins have been on continuous view for more than 100 years, thrilling four generations of visitors. This exhibition will reunite the mummy’s coffin pieces and bring ancient Egyptian objects to Albany from collections around the world. Using images of art and artifacts, staff will share what they have learned about the world in which our mummies lived and worked 3,000 years ago. Each program attendee will be given a free pass to the Albany Institute. This exhibition isfunded by GE and IMLS, a federal agency.
