Welcome to the Events Page
Events are frequently updated so please check back regularly or sign up to receive an email news letter.
Our workshops cater for all ages. Originally aimed at children, our workshops are now open to children and adults. Parents and carers enjoyed our practical activities so much, we had to open bookings for them! Now you can learn alongside your young ArchaeoLearners.
We have also introduced some workshops for adults (16 years and over).
So if you are 8, 18 or 80 and have an interest in archaeology, want to learn more or just to get involved in an informal setting, book a place.
It is with regret that our current season of events has been postponed due to COVID -19. All bookings will be honoured and registered guests have been contacted directly. We will notify you once our workshops are up and running again.
Wishing you and your family good health. Stay Safe.
