Museum of Idaho

Jennifer, a guest of InIdaho's from
Shoshone, Idaho, had this to say about Museum of Idaho:
"Loved the exhibits, beautifully put together. It is so easy to get caught up in the world of Lewis and Clark and the history of Idaho while strolling through it. A must see!!! I rank it a 5 out 5."

Museum of Idaho Description:
Museum of Idaho hosts nationally acclaimed traveling exhibits from all over the world. Both educational and entertaining, the exhibits have ranged from “T-rex Named Sue,” to “Space Journey” (NASA), to the “Dead Sea Scrolls.” Currently showing is “World of the Pharaohs.” The 2009 schedule includes “Titanic” and “Lincoln.” Five permanent exhibits are also on display within the museum. In addition, visitors may visit the museum store and Children’s Discovery Room.
World of the Pharaohs
Present – November 30, 2008
Presenting over 3,000 years of history, the exhibit features wonders such as a colossus of Ramesses II, an ornate sarcophagus lid, royal decrees in hieroglyphics, “magical” amulets, golden statuettes and even a cat mummy. The “World of the Pharaohs” is presented by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston which houses one of the finest Egyptian collections of its kind in the world.
Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition
February – September 2009
On a calm April night in 1912, the world’s largest ship, Titanic, sank after colliding with an iceberg on her maiden voyage. On board were passengers from all walks of life: titans of commerce, artists, movie stars, government officials, immigrants dreaming of a new life. More than 1,500 of them died. No one believed it could happen. Now science and technology are allowing us to see the Titanic through this internationally acclaimed tribute to Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition. Viewed by more than 18 million people worldwide and hailed as a must see, the exhibition will sail into the Museum of Idaho soon!
