This year we will celebrate the Museum's role as a bridge between ancient and present, a home for a priceless collection, an inspiration for contemporary creations, and a center for innovative and widespread educational and cultural programs for two decades.
The highlight of the festivities will be the Museum's new exhibition, PURE GOLD, opening this spring. Discover the secrets of gold and its value throughout history as a symbol of the material and the magnificent.
