Have you ever wondered what it's like to be an archaeologist? Attend Michigan Archaeology Day at the Michigan History Museum on Saturday, October 18, 2025, for your chance to talk with archaeologists about investigations and artifacts that tell the story of 14,000 years of Michigan history! From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., archaeologists and experts in related fields will be stationed throughout the first and second floors of the museum where they will tell you about their research, show you some artifacts they have found and answer your questions.
Plus, there will be many hands-on activities, including:
• Make a clay pinch pot
• Watch a flintknapper make stone tools
• Try throwing a spear using an atlatl
• Watch archaeologists demonstrate new survey technologies
• Join a scavenger hunt
• Show an artifact to our Archaeology Roadshow experts
• See a special presentation about the Edmund Fitzgerald in the Forum Auditorium
• Pick up a free archaeology poster
This all-ages annual event is free, and parking is too!
