A Magical Night in the Museum & The Great Isaiah Scroll
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to view the Great Isaiah Scroll. I crafted a special tour to enhance this experience, and it’s a smaller limit than usual because of the exhibition. A magical night in the museum is for renegades. A social event with surprises.
Bible Lands Museum — Age of Empires
The Age of Empires tour is live now — next date Thursday, August 13 at 10:00am (family tour follows at 12:30pm), with more dates through August.
