Today, Egyptians practice several religious, artistic, and social traditions that can be traced to ancient Egypt, demonstrating the power and longevity of cultural memory. Drawing on research in archaeology, Egyptian art, writing, and culture, Fayza Haikal will examine Egyptian society’s cultural expressions from antiquity to the present, focusing on language, spirituality, superstitions, funerary traditions, and folklore.</p><p>	<a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/52%20Oxford%20St.%20Garage/@42.379823,-71.1179754,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x89e37740b7278721:0xc4afb229b3ca67be!8m2!3d42.3801916!4d-71.1157009?hl=en">Free event parking at the 52 Oxford Street Garage</a></p><h2>	<strong>Accommodations </strong><img alt="Accessibile Icon." height="25" src="https://static.hwpi.harvard.edu/files/styles/os_files_small/public/museums/files/whlchr-25px-1.png?m=1567003824&amp;itok=RZIYCBP_" title="" width="25"></h2><p>	We encourage persons with disabilities to participate in programs and activities.
