Egyptian Cats in Science & Paint In-Person
This event is presented as a part of the Festival of Science 2022 "Pyramids to the Peaks." Join us for a group discussion and painting session in the North West corner of the library to explore the cultural and scientific significance of Egyptian cats!
The discussion will be based on the chapter "Egypt" from Classical Cats: The Rise and Fall of the Sacred Cat by Donald W. Engels, but the reading is optional. You can pick up the chapter to read and discussion questions at the Downtown Library Information Desk. Painting supplies will be provided by the library to create cat portraits in acrylic paint inspired by the 2017 painting "Egyptian Cat" by Gheorghe Virtosu, a contemporary Egyptian painter.
Registration is required and space is limited. Call the library at (928) 213-2331 or select "Begin Registration" below.
