Pompeii comes to life at OMSI

By: David F. Ashton

The new featured exhibition at the Oregon Museum of Science & Industry (OMSI) highlights Pompeii, an ancient Roman city near modern Naples, in Italy.

Having opened this summer, POMPEII: THE EXHIBITION has been giving visitors the opportunity to explore scenes from the city as it was in 79 A.D., experience the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in a unique 4D theater, and see the aftermath – exquisitely preserved in lava for more than 1,700 years.
