ARCHAEOLOGY ADVENTURES DAY
Join us for an afternoon of archaeology for kids of all ages! Parents are welcome to join their children or attend the ADW lectures.
Various stations will include: digging up artifacts (Kids Dig), piecing together pottery, drawing ancient objects, and more! Afterward, kids and parents are invited to head to the Zapara School of Business for a movie night featuring "Night at the Museum" and pizza.
