What can we learn about the lives and beliefs of ancient Egyptians through art objects? On this Election Day, join Met experts, curators, educators, and artists as they unravel the exhibition Divine Egypt, and examine how deities were depicted and the many roles they played in people’s lives. Through multiple in-gallery and studio-based sessions, build your own knowledge of ancient Egypt and further consider how to spark your students’ curiosity and make these connections back in your classroom.

Fee: $35; includes Museum admission, instruction, and materials. Light refreshments are provided at the start of the program. Please note: Advance registration is required. Registration closes on Monday, October 27, 2025, 11:59 pm (ET), or when registration is full.
