Visitors to Premier Exhibitions 5th Avenue walk in the footsteps of legendary archeologist Howard Carter, who unearthed the treasures of King Tut nearly a century ago. On two Sundays this spring, families can also travel back in time, as The Discovery of King Tut offers kid-focused tours, readings, and workshops with special guests, all free with the price of admission.
