Wowzo, I went to this today, opening day, and really enjoyed it. A nice mixture of monumental art -- from ancient amateurish to highly skilled -- a modern topographic presentation, three different video presentations, readable text, and appropriate background music. It is worth seeing, and I may wind up going again, perhaps near the end of the run (August). Many congratulations to Calvin College for having the foresight to host it, and for going all out. Everyone with an interest in antiquity in general and the lands of the Bible in particular should go to see this. $12 is a modest price. And if it seems a bit too modest, blow some money in the amply stocked gift shop near the exit of the exhibition.

Is the exhibit coming to the South? The link posted in the first message now goes to a headline story about the Pope.
