During their day, students also will be given workbooks and will have a chance to win prizes, go on a mock archeological dig, make art and learn more about Egyptian culture and history while enjoying the best permanent display of Ancient Egyptian antiquities on the West Coast.
Billie Sessions, a CSUSB art professor, will run the workshop, and Keith Brockie will give a guest lecture and demonstration.
To register, go to the Robert V. Fullerton Art Museum Web site. Children may be registered right up to the day the workshop opens on July 28 as long as space is available.
