About this Event

York Archaeology archaeologists will be hosting a series of workshops consisting of a number of activities that reflect the work archaeologists do both on and off site. The workshops will start with a brief presentation about what we do on site and a finds handling session. The rest of the workshop will consist of hands-on activities that will include:

  • Hand planning and site recording
  • Finds identification
  • Finds washing
  • Clay pot making
  • Photogrammetry and photography

There are two 90-minute sessions on Wednesday 18 February at Beston Library: 10am, 12pm and 2pm.

This event is suitable for families with children aged 10+. When booking your tickets, please include all adults and children attending.
