Penn Museum’s “Secrets of the Silk Road” Exhibition to Open with Mummies and Artifacts from China!

Penn Museum is pleased to announce that its landmark exhibition from China, “Secrets of the Silk Road,” is now open to the public with the full complement of artifacts and mummies for a limited time only.

Penn Museum will extend day and evening hours to help accommodate those who wish to experience this extraordinary exhibition during its limited run. The artifacts and mummies—making their exclusive East Coast appearance—will be on display in the Museum’s exhibition presentation developed exclusively for Philadelphia, and will run through Tuesday, March 15.

From March 17 through March 28, the exhibition will continue, with all the artifacts but without the two mummies.

The Museum and exhibition will be open seven days a week.  Exhibition hours are 10am to 6pm Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday (ticket times are 10:00am to 4:30pm); 10:00am to 9:00pm on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (ticket times are 10:00am to 7:30pm).  Details at www.penn.museum/silkroad or 877-77-CLICK (25425).
