Jr. Archaeology - Native American Dig

Calling all future archaeologists to the Kidseum dig site! One of the most popular activities at the museum are the outdoor archaeology dig pits located on the patio. Beginning in January one dig pit will be open every weekend day (closed First Festival Sundays and pending weather), the cultures will change weekly. The digs are not facilitated and are included with Kidseum admission. All children must be accompanied by an adult when exploring. Dig pits are open from 10:30 am-3:30 pm.

On February 13 and February 14 discover artifacts left from Native Americans such as arrow heads, shells, manos, pottery shards and more! All artifacts must be left with the museum for future digs. Real archaeologists do not keep their discoveries and most discoveries end up in the care of a museum for future generations to enjoy.
