COME AND JOIN THE DIG
Ever wondered what life is like as an archaeologist?
Join us to find out at our hands-on family workshops as part of the Festival of Archaeology!
Have a go at our blanket dig and dig trays to see what objects you can excavate and discover. Get crafty with a trio of activities including seed excavation, making your own medieval artefact to take home and be an archaeology detective piecing together excavated pottery!
Suggested ages 6-12, all children must be accompanied by an adult
