actually this is for Groupon because the survey makes it sound like I went to MOWT this summer 2012 and I used a Groupon coupon for MOWT more like 2010?? it was one of my earliest Groupons. So this survey is a bit outdated. I was familiar with MOWT for several years before the Groupon, mostly used it to allow some friends with young children an opportunity to go to MOWT because otherwise their finances would not allow, and as a fun joint family putting for the two groups of us to go together and hang out. As for MOWT, well it started as Dr. Jon K.....(forgot last name)'s personal collection, so part of it years ago just seemed like just humoring him for showing off stuff he liked to collect (as we had also been to Egypt and to some of the other world places that he brought his souvenirs from). But on the other hand, he did get some pretty cool stuff that I would never have thought to collect, and having actually BEEN to Egypt, and having actually BEEN to the Cairo Museum etc, we can believe that he did get some pretty good stuff? So it's always fun to check in every few years and see what improvements have been made since the earliest years when it was part of the "show and tell" exhibit at Century II long before MOWT moved into the old Farm & Art Market Building. I'd recommend the trip if you've never been to MOWT, even though part of it, for lack of endowment funding etc, comes off as a "homemade science project" and not as slickly professional as say, Smithsonian Institute (which we have also seen several of the museums there in Washington DC etc.).

Three-story museum teems with historical artifacts that include dinosaur fossils, presidential signatures, mummies & sarcophagi

The earliest history museums had little actual history to draw on, and instead padded exhibits with wildly speculative displays about how dinosaurs would be elected to Congress by the year 2000. See how far we’ve come with today’s Groupon to the Museum of World Treasures. The museum is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday–Saturday and noon to 5 p.m. on Sunday. Choose from the following options:

  • For $21, you get a Senior Couple one-year membership for two adults aged 60 or older (a $42 value).
  • For $24, you get a Single Plus one-year membership for an adult individual plus one guest (a $49 value).
  • For $49, you get a Household Plus one-year membership for a family plus one guest (a $99 value).
  • For $49, you get a Grandparent Plus one-year membership for two grandparents and all grandchildren up to age 21 (a $99 value).<p>

At the Museum of World Treasures, multifarious historical artifacts from around the world feed the knowledge-hungry brains of families and students of earth history. Museum members capitalize on myriad benefits, including discounts on educational programs, invitations to special events, and a chance to shake hands with the museum’s resident mummies or teach the mummies more up-to-date fist bumps and palms rubs. Three floors of exhibits await eager explorers, from the hulking dinosaur skeletons of the fossil gallery to an authentic Civil War cannon, part of the museum’s efforts to curate military exhibits ranging from the Revolutionary War to the Vietnam War. Patrons witness original footage from the discovery of the Titanic and feel humbled in the presence of signatures from every American president, including those not yet born.
