The Young Archaeologists' Club is for youth interested in archaeology. This is their chance to work with archaeologists, learn methods of archaeological science through informal education workshops, and get their hands dirty.

Custom Archaeology Program
|
We can work with your educational institution, cultural organization, scouting troop, or community group to develop a custom program. Instructors employ hands-on activities to teach archaeology through critical thinking, science, history, math, or technological skills. The curricula are designed not only to teach age-appropriate skills, but also to inspire the student’s imagination.
If you are an educator, Boy or Girl Scout troop leader, or anyone excited to explore archaeology, contact us with more details about your needs. |
