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 "Looking at Greek Vases."
Pottery has been described as the “tail that wags archaeology” because it has been found in such abundant quantities at excavation sites around the world. This tour focuses on some of the ancient Greek vases on display at the Kelsey Museum. While examining these often beautiful vases, we consider the clues they give about their uses as well as what they reveal about the ancient Greeks themselves.
