Discover, explore and get hand’s- on at the museum’s Ancient Faces & Places Big Saturday. Find out more about the people of ancient times through objects; how they used and made them. Meet museum curators, and see some highlights from the museum’s collections. Find out more about Flinders Petrie and the site of Hawara and the discovery of the mummy portraits. Get hand’s on and create some portraits of your own. Explore the museum’s ancient worlds galleries, and our newly opened ‘Fragmentary Ancestors: Figurine from Koma Land’.
