Graphic of Delaware with New Castle County Highlighted

Wilmington (Arsht Hall) | February 3, 2025-May 5, 2025

Monday: 10:45 AM-12:00 PM

Millennia ago we selected the crow as a messenger to the gods, as demonstrated in cave art, the myths and stories of numerous cultures, and subsequent literature/art. What do we sense in crows that makes them fit for such a role? Review the myths, art, literature and recent scientific studies to discover answers.
