Family Discovery Day - Archaeology

Try your hand at archaeology—dig for relics and explore ancient civilizations at this discovery day.

Your child can experience life as an archaeologist during this hands-on discovery day at the Indiana State Museum. Kids will participate in an "archaeological dig" to uncover hidden relics, learn about ancient civilizations, and interact directly with Indiana archaeology experts who can answer questions and share their knowledge. It's a great way for curious young minds to explore what real archaeological work involves. This full-day event runs from mid-morning through mid-afternoon, giving families plenty of time to engage with the activities without feeling rushed. The museum setting provides an educational backdrop for the experience, and being located in White River State Park means you could combine it with other outdoor activities in the area if you'd like to make a longer outing of it. Check the museum's website for any registration details or admission costs.
