SUMMARY:Pop Quiz: 1776
DESCRIPTION:Step back into the 18th century and put your detective skills to the test! Pop Quiz: 1776 takes you on a four-museum adventure to uncover surprising ways that life at Harvard was both similar to and—or different from —today. Would Harvard students in 1776 have known about the things we see and do today? Take a guess\, then search for specific objects across our four museums—the Harvard Museum of Natural History\, the Peabody Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology\, the Harvard Museum of the Ancient Near East\, and the Collection of Historical Scientific Instruments—to check your answers. \nPro tip: join us any Sunday–Friday 11:00 am–4:00 pm to access all four museums! \nCheck museum’s website for closure dates.
