Current and upcoming exhibitions

A comprehensive list of current and upcoming exhibitions on Ancient Egypt, Nubia and the Sudan, the Ancient Near East and Classical Archaeology is provided by AJA online.

Current and upcoming exhibitions on Ancient Egypt, Nubia and the Sudan are listed below in chronological order. Once an exhibition closes, the respective entry is taken down and archived in a separate document of past exhibitions which was created in 2016 by Diane Bergman and has since been maintained by her.
