Description

The Rochester Museum & Science Center offers a "Behind the Scenes" tour,
for up to 10 people, of storage areas not normally open to the general
public. These secure vaults contain more than 1.2 million objects, many of
which have rarely been on display. A curator will take the high bidder and
nine guests on a grand tour viewing collection objects such as Nathaniel
Rochester's vest, Susan B. Anthony's quilt and coffee pot, a variety of
Seneca objects from the ethnology collection, President Grant's cigar,
Rattlesnake Pete's jacket and patent medicine, as well as a selection of
minerals, fossils, and animals. Take advantage of this unusual opportunity
to see and learn more about the interesting people and rare animals that
represent Rochester's heritage! Reservations for this tour are required.

Certificate expires on 5/12/08.
