Saturday Sampler tours are back! We've missed you and are thrilled to be offering our Saturday Sampler tours virtually! Join us over Zoom to explore the Kelsey Museum from the comfort of your home.
The theme of this week's tour is "A Farm-to-Table Story of Imperial Rome."
An amazing supply chain delivered over 200,000 tons of grain annually to feed the inhabitants of imperial Rome, the world’s largest city. This tour uses artifacts to follow that supply chain from an Egyptian farming village to Rome’s great ports, all the way through to the final milling and baking of the bread that would feed a million Romans.
