From AGI:

Florence, Italy, Sep 22 - A leap into the daily life of Nefertiti and Ramses III will be offered by "The Five Senses. The pleasure of life in Ancient Egypt," the cultural event sponsored by the National Archaeological Museum of Florence-the Egypt Section and the Aboca Musem in occasion of the "European Heritage Days," dedicated this year to the culture of living. Realised with the help of the cultural association 'Arte-mide', the event (free entry) will take place on Sunday September 25, in the Crocetta Palace, home of the Archaeology Museum. It will be a journey back in time to discover the Egyptian people through their everyday life: the attention placed on beauty and hygiene, food, music and dance.

I finally found the APT site, the official tourism site for Florence, but unfortunately is has a lot of broken links and broken database connections. That being said it is still worth a visit. I could not find the "official" home page of the National Archaeological Museum of Florence though - if anyone has the URL please leave it in the comments.
