A celebration of historic preservation will give visitors a rare opportunity to travel back in time and immerse themselves in the history and culture of the Columbia Plateau’s native people during the 3rd Annual Spokane Archaeology Day.

This interactive event will feature something for everyone – including demonstrations, exhibits and oral presentations from 10:00 AM until 3:00 PM, Saturday, October 1, on the grounds of the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture.

People of all ages are invited to experience the methods archaeologists use to learn about the heritage of the Inland Northwest. Among the activities, visitors will be able to conduct an archaeological survey and a mock excavation, learn how to identify historic artifacts, make a tool through the process of flint knapping, practice zooarchaeology by studying animal bones and much more.
