The British Museum in London is the oldest national museum in the world, belonging neither to the church nor to the monarchy, but rather to the people of Great Britain. Its 8 million (!) objects constitute the largest assemblage of artifacts, antiquities, and curiosities in the world – a simply astounding collection of world culture, gathered into a single institution. Join Professor Gary Rendsburg for this virtual tour of the British Museum, home to the Rosetta Stone, the Elgin Marbles, the Gilgamesh Epic, the Cyrus cylinder, Assyrian wall reliefs, the Sutton Hoo treasures, the Vindolanda tablets, the Lewis chessmen, and much more. Provided by the CAST Senior Center, our Virtual Programs provide an endless variety of interesting subjects. Our Virtual Programs take us across the country, experiencing and learning about places and people which we wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity to experience. Scheduled every Tuesday afternoon, unless noted, at 1pm at the CAST Senior Center, our Virtual Programs are free and open to the public. There are no membership dues and everyone is welcome to attend. Programming is provided by CuriousityU.com and other online providers. Check out our virtual program schedule every month and join us! We look forward to seeing you!
