Join me for JCCC’s Night at the Nelson 2015. The event will be held at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art on Friday, 17 April, from 6-8 pm. JCCC professors from various departments have selected artworks to present to students, staff, faculty, and the public at 6:30pm, 7pm, and 7:30pm. I will be speaking at 7:30 pm in the Egyptian Galleries (P1) about the stele of Seankhy and Ankhu from Abydos, Egypt. The event is free, but tickets are required (and can be obtained at the museum the night of the event). Night at the Nelson is always fun, informative, and a great way to spend an evening. Hope to see you there!
