Family Program: Open Nest

  • July 20, 2013
  • 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM
  • Oriental Institute, The University of Chicago
Before the special exhibit Between Heaven & Earth: Birds in Ancient Egypt flies the coop, the Oriental nstitute will be throwing an Egyptian bird–themed family event outdoors on the beautiful neo-gothic University of Chicago quadrangles and inside the Oriental Institute Museum. Learn the “History of the Chicken” Dance and play an Egyptian-themed game of “Duck, Duck, Goose,” make art the ancient Egyptian way, and use your imagination to create new birds, write silly hieroglyphic bird sayings, make an Egyptian
bird tale with puppets, and more! There are activities for children ages 5 to 99.

And keep an eye out for our “GOOSE” posters around Hyde Park and the city — find one of those, and you might win a free pharaonic rubber ducky!

Free. Pre-register online at orientalinstitute. eventbrite.com.  Click here for details.
