The Dead Sea Scrolls
Calvin Around Town
February 20, 2003
Van Andel Museum Center

There were 1,000 guests of the Alumni Association at the largest "Around Town" event ever! Scrolls experts Bastiaan Van Elderen '49 (Calvin Seminary emeritus), James Vander Kam '68 (Notre Dame), Ken Pomykala '76 (Calvin College prof) and Dan Harlow (Calvin College prof) helped alumni and friends appreciate the amazing exhibition. Plus, the entire museum was open to all. A great night! If you haven't seen the Scrolls yet --- please visit the museum and do so! It is an inspiring experience.
