It’s official….when the King Tut exhibit begins touring the U.S. again in 2008, Dallas will be the first stop on the tour.

The closest this exhibit has been to Dallas was 25+ years ago when it visited New Orleans. If you had the opportunity to visit the first tour, do not expect this to be a repeat as there are many artifacts on the current tour that have never before been out of Egypt.

Mark your calendar — or, better yet — this would be a good time to join the Dallas Museum of Art because you know they are gong to pull out all the stops for this event! The DMA will have the King Tut exhibit from 3 Oct 07 - 17 May 09.

This will be a major boon for the Dallas economy as well as several million dollars are generated by attendees at every stop this tour makes.
