You can thank the three federal agencies, National Endowment for Humanities (NEH), National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and Institute of Museum and Library Services, for a combined $495,000 — so you can experience the 85-day exhibition of sights, touch, sounds, smells, and tastes of medieval times.
