Discover the past of Clotilda and Africatown: Shape the future of archaeology education.
The story of Africatown inspires us to educate, engage, and unite as a community of archaeology educators to create impactful, collective learning experiences for the public.
Project Archaeology invites all archaeology educators including classroom teachers, archaeologists, museum educators, college students, descendant community members, and anyone else who is interested in archaeology education to attend. Join us to connect people to the past to protect and honor our shared cultural heritage.
Project Archaeology can help you forge connections to place and people wherever you teach: K-12 classrooms, museums, parks, and universities. We help you deliver high quality archaeology education to your community through curricula, workshops, and lesson presentations.
The conference provides professional development through sessions, workshops, field trips, and speakers. There are many opportunities for networking and mentorships. Plus, we connect you with high-quality educational materials!
Networking with peers and mentors makes this conference valuable now and in the future. This year we will focus on uniting as a community of archaeology educators as we visit Africatown heritage sites, hear cultural perspectives, and experience hands-on lessons all while being nourished with Southern soul food!
