Heroes: Mortals & Myths in Ancient Greece

Place: San Diego Museum of Art (Balboa Park) (Museum Information)

This traveling exhibit, originated by the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, will tour several museums across the country. It includes about 100 objects "that explore the inherent human need for heroes by using ancient Greek culture as a point of origin. Greek history and mythology are especially rich in various kinds of heroes, who were represented in the arts but were also the object of cults, receiving sacrifices and offerings from worshipers who sought their intervention."
