Leonardo Da Vinci exhibit

I've never been to see the Leonardo Da Vinci exhibit.

The next traveling exhibit to come through the Houston Museum of Natural Science will be Leonardo Da Vinci. I can't wait to see this exhibit. Every time I read or hear about him, I am fascinated by his understanding, his work, his drive to learn everything about everything. The exhibit coming in March will display 60 models of Da Vinci's most fascinating inventions and machines, based on his ancient codices.

That I'd like to see.


Treasures of Shanghai

I've never been to see the "Treasures of Shanghai" exhibit.

It is a traveling exhibit on loan from the Shanghai Museum to the Houston Museum of Natural Science. This exhibit features 77 objects dating from 3000 BC to the Qing Dynasty. You can see bronze pieces, oracle bones, pottery, porcelain, jade and bamboo carvings, and paintings. This exhibit will remain on display through Jan. 6.

That I'd like to see.
