An over-due apology

Posted in Uncategorized on December 23rd, 2009 by admin

While you might all think that I am ubiquitous and infallible, in truth I am neither :P . I forgot to thank We Love DC for their great coverage from our Sneak Preview Event held way way back in November. Please take a moment to check out their site and all the cool events they put on in DC. Not only do we at the Museum love DC, we love We Love DC.

Here’s the scoop:
1.) Find Chi Chang (luckily we are giving you a lot of location clues on Facebook)
2.) Get your photo taken with him
3.) Send in a funny caption
4.) Send in more photos in other locations
5.) Sit back and wait to be crowned Emperor
6.) See if there are special prizes/awards/honors/publicity associated with the prize.

Stop sitting here and reading, go. Fast. Go!

Give a Gift this Season

Posted in Uncategorized on December 21st, 2009 by admin

Terra Cotta Warriors like gifts as much as the next many thousand year old sculpture. As such, they’ve developed this list of great holiday gifts:

Tickets to the exhibit: Of course, they like company over the holidays too!

Dinner at Ten Penh, PF Chang’s or Mei N Yu: With special tasting menus created just for them, dinner at these restaurants seems almost like going home again.

Our e-book/e-guide: Just because its FREE, doesn’t mean its not a perfect present for the avid reader. Print it out, bind it and place a great big bow!

If that sounds like too much work, you can buy a TCW book here.

Finally, the warriors like excavating too and this children’s excavation is a blissful way to waste away time. Find it at the National Geographic store.

And finally, there are a variety of t-shirts, knickknacks and other cool gifts, here. It’s already been two millennium, don’t keep the warriors waiting this season.
