The Dead Sea Scrolls To The Bible In America

The Dead Sea Scrolls To The Bible In America is a touring museum exibit including fragments of the Dead Sea Scrolls and other interesting Biblical artifacts.
From the front page of the site...

What is being hailed as the single greatest traveling exhibition touring America today will be on display in North Carolina. Some of the rarest artifacts and earliest Biblical manuscripts from around the world will visit North Carolina from Jan 14, 2005 thru February 27. The exhibit will present a display of the History of Scripture from Antiquity to Modern America, highlighting the importance Dead Sea Scrolls to the founding fathers.
This awe-inspiring collection of artifacts, manuscripts and Bibles comes together to tell the story of the complete history of the Bible. In addition to the several Dead Sea Scroll Biblical fragments from books of the Old Testament and as well as other important manuscripts uncovered at Qumran, the show will also display: the earliest forms of human writing (5,000 year old clay tablets from Mesopotamia); examples of early Hebrew; some early New Testament manuscripts, Medieval Biblical Manuscripts; and first editions of important printed Bibles from the Gutenberg Bible (1455) to the King James Bible (1611).


I don't know for sure, but it appears we may be the last stop.
