Join us for a day of exploring the past! Learn more about the work that archeologists do by exploring the history and artifacts of Kreische Brewery, a site excavated by Parks and Wildlife in the late 1970s. The day includes hands-on family-friendly activities, site tours of the house and brewery, presentations by archeologists, scientists, and community members, and more. Stop by each designated station to receive a stamp in your archeology field notebook and a junior archeologist prize at the end of your visit!
This year’s programs will include:
- Can you Dig it? Mock Archeological Excavation
- Let’s Talk Trash: Trash Archeology
- Survey Says! Archeological survey
- Down and Griddy: A Drawing and Gridding activity
- Touch Table Artifact Analysis
- A Field Notebook to guide you through the event
- Prizes for those who complete their notebook
The hands-on activities and field notebook passport are designed for children aged 4-14, but guided archeological tours of the brewery will be offered throughout the day for older audiences.
