See Archaeology in Action at the Willamette Heritage Center Sunday April 10
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to visit an archaeological dig? Well you don’t have to travel too far to experience it for yourself! This spring, the Willamette Heritage Center is partnering with Willamette University, the City of Salem, the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, and the Oregon Archaeological Society to conduct an excavation right here on the museum grounds.
While visitors to the museum will be able to watch the progress of the month-long project from afar, Public Archaeology Day will be an opportunity to get up close and personal, and tour the excavation area and see what is being discovered. A number of family-friendly, hands-on activities will also be available to test your archaeology skills and know-how.
