The MET - Gallery Workshop..

I went back to The MET to join the Alzheimer's Access Program....
We travelled to Egypt and viewed mummies and artifacts from numerous tombs. It was great as alot of the participants could really reflect on their own personal experiences of being in Egypt. 70% of my group had been to Egypt - so this tour was ideal for them!! We were able to touch and we drew patterns which allowed for detailed observations too.
This program was very similar to Milwaukee's Public Museum and a perfect way to travel to a place without going on an aeroplane! A great way to 'leave' New York for the day....
