Join the Museum for its next virtual Roots event on Tuesday, December 8 from 4:00-4:30 p.m.! Throughout the year, we honor the artistic and scientific contributions of different cultures that comprise the unique community of San Diego County. We are thrilled to celebrate Egyptian culture with a FREE virtual event filled with fun for the entire family. Tune in live on the Museum’s Facebook page to enjoy a traditional dance performance, bilingual storytime in Arabic and English, and other cultural activities!
This virtual event will be hosted on the Museum's Facebook page. On the day of the event, check our page for the Roots: Egypt video and give us a follow to be notified when we go live.
