Join us for a free, family-friendly Archaeology Fair in the Grand Hall! Explore interactive displays featuring authentic artifacts from real archaeological sites. Get hands-on with stone tools, prehistoric pottery, and animal bones and shells, and watch flint knapping demonstrations. Kids and adults alike can take part in arts and crafts activities inspired by the prehistoric era.

Meet experts from multiple archaeology groups and uncover the fascinating stories of our world. HMNS docents will also showcase Museum touch carts from exhibits including the Hall of Ancient Egypt, McGovern Hall of the Americas, and the Human Evolution section of the Morian Hall of Paleontology.
