Quest for Immortality: Treasures of Ancient
EgyptThe New Orleans Museum of Art presents the first exhibition of ancient art from the Egyptian National collection to tour the United States since the Tutankhamun and Ramses exhibitions 20 years ago. The show entitled, "Quest for Immortality: Treasures of Ancient Egypt," features objects that have never been on public display and many that have never been seen outside of Egypt! The exhibition boasts extraordinary antiquities including gold masks, jewelry, highly decorated coffins and monumental sculpture...the largest selection of antiquities ever loaned by Egypt for exhibition in North America! For the first time, the Egyptian traditions and rituals of preparing for a glorious rebirth after death are revealed in "The Quest for Immortality: Treasures of Ancient Egypt." Ancient Egyptian beliefs and practices based on the after-life journey of Pharaohs are dramatically illustrated through magnificent objects from Egypt and a life-sized reconstruction of the burial chamber of Thutmose III, the grandfather of King Tut! From the earliest times, Egyptians denied the physical impermanence of life. They formulated a remarkably complex set of beliefs and funneled vast material resources into the quest for immortality. This exhibition focuses on that quest and visitors will acquire knowledge and insight of personal significance as well as answers to questions concerning our common future...

Ducks swim in the lake while Kids enjoy the park year round...recently unleashed dogs have been given their own piece of the pie. The park evolves as Atlanta grows and its citizens have taken its stewardship into their own hands with the Piedmont Park Conservancy. Let's take a look back in history at the development of Piedmont Park. It all began in 1887...a long time ago... Click here for full article!
