About this Event

The ISAC Museum is excited to partner with the National Hellenic Museum as part of their Museums in Conversation collaboration. During this joint program, students are invited to step into the role of an archaeologist through a hands-on activity designed to spark your child's curiosity and get imagination running.

Children will have the opportunity to handle replica artifacts, examine their features up close, and try their hand at making inferences just like real archaeologists.

Children will get to handle replica objects ranging from pottery to mysterious objects from long ago. Junior archaeologists will consider what these items might have been used for, who might have made them, and what they can tell us about the people who made and used them.

This interactive activity encourages observation and critical thinking in a supportive environment where kids can learn by doing.

Recommended Age: 5–12

Pricing:

$5 for members of either NHM or ISAC Museum - membership at either museum is accepted

$10 for non-members

Adults free (with paying child). If you purchase this add-on without buying a paid ticket, your add-on will be canceled.

Membership status will be checked at the door
