Band of Boomers visit Penn Museum

  • First Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia 201 South 21st Street Philadelphia, PA, 19103 United States (map)

Join the Band of Boomers on Sunday, April 14 after church for a visit to Penn Museum, including a highlight tour.  Home to over one million extraordinary artifacts and archaeological finds, the Penn Museum has been uncovering our shared humanity across continents and millennia since 1887. In bridging archaeology (the study of objects made by humans), with anthropology, (the science of humanity), it charts a course for finding one’s own place in the arc of human history.

The highlight tour features several of the signature galleries, and is led by one of the Museum’s Graduate Guides. Discover highlights of the Museum’s collection and how archaeologists use them to understand the past.

Meet at 1:30 at the Museum (3260 South Street), which is a 30 minute walk, a short bus ride (42 bus)or a quick drive (parking is available next door) for the highlight tour. The cost for admission and the tour for seniors (65+) is $20.00, and $22.00 for younger Boomers. Lunch is available at the café beforehand. Please RSVP to Shellie Unger.
