About the event
From the earliest times, items were buried with the deceased for use in the afterlife. It’s difficult to tell if these items were ever used for their intended purposes, but many of them exist long after the owner has disappeared entirely. Bronze and ceramics are prized as a window into the cultures that created them. Please RSVP under “Events” at TheatreofMemory.org as seating is limited.
