Solar Boats

Saturday, January 24, at 1:30 p.m.

Discover the sacred funerary boats in the museum’s collection and learn more about the ancient Egyptians’ eternal connection to the Nile River.

Bask in the rays of the sun deity, Ra as he travels across the sky each day. Together we will explore the dangerous passage his Solar Boat takes through the Duat each night. We will then build our own Solar Boat to place in a tomb to help the deceased make it to the afterlife.
