Get ready! The pharaoh's treasures are slated to go on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in June, before heading to Fort Lauderdale, Chicago, and Philadelphia (click here for the schedule). We'll have a review of the exhibition, as presented in Bonn, Germany, in our upcoming May/June issue (and we'll post that here once it's published). Meanwhile, Tutmania is already building, so we'll give you all the background and news about the Boy King. Check back for updates!
