Pop Quiz: Time Covers the 1960s
From John F. Kennedy to Julie Andrews, the 1960s were packed with iconic individuals and events that helped to define the decade. This month’s Pop Quiz trivia night focuses on the National Portrait Gallery’s exhibition “Time Covers the 1960s,” which features original cover art that the magazine published during the “Age of Aquarius.” Many of the questions are taken directly off the wall labels, so make sure to see the exhibition on the second floor to get the advantage!
Pop Quiz takes place once a month in the Robert and Arlene Kogod Courtyard. This month’s trivia night is scheduled for January 14 and starts at 6:30 p.m. It can be played individually or in teams of up to six people. The team with the highest score will take home fun prizes and bragging rights. The Courtyard Café will be open during the quiz for participants to buy snacks and drinks.
