Museum of Peoples and Cultures hosts date night activity June 15

Brigham Young University’s Museum of Peoples and Cultures will host an Egyptian-themed date night titled “Sphinxes and Sweethearts” Friday, June 15, at 7 p.m. at the museum, located at 100 E. 700 N. in Provo.

Tickets for “Sphinxes and Sweethearts” are $10 per couple and are available for purchase at the Wilkinson Student Center Information Desk beginning Monday, June 11.

Couples will get the chance to win prizes throughout the night in three different activities: a mummy-wrapping race, a set of three different games (Pyramid, Egyptian Balderdash and Matching of the Gods) and painting hieroglyphics.  After a night of cultural fun, the couples will enjoy light refreshments.
