Join us for a hands-on Archaeology lab workshop! This spring, Monticello’s archaeologists will share how we learn about the past through artifacts.
Kids ages 7-11 and their favorite grown-ups are invited to learn what archaeologists do, help us analyze real artifacts found at Monticello, and participate in fun activities! From mending artifacts to learning how pottery is created, archaeologists-in-training will explore part of what we do at Monticello Archaeology.
