Join us for a special member evening to celebrate the opening of Queen Nefertari’s Egypt.

This exhibition brings to life the role of Nefertari and other powerful women in ancient Egypt through 230 exceptional objects drawn from the collection of the Museo Egizio in Turin. These include statues, jewelry, vases, papyrus, steles, wooden coffins, and stone sarcophagi, as well as tools and various items of daily life from the artisan village of Deir-el-Medina, home to those who created the royal tombs.

Covid-19 Safety Guidelines

NOMA’s primary concern is the health of our visitors, staff, and community. At this time, visitors to the museum age 5+ are required to show proof of two doses of a Covid-19 vaccine (or one dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine), or negative results of a Covid-19 test taken within 72 hours of your visit. Negative Covid-19 test results must be an official lab report or a screenshot of PCR/molecular or antigen COVID test results. Masks are not required for NOMA visitors or staff. We continue to monitor all federal, state, and local guidelines, and will update our policy accordingly.
