Craven Museum will be celebrating The Festival of Archaeology 2025 with a family Dig & Discover Day.
The theme of this year’s festival is Archaeology and wellbeing so come along and join us in our Castle Critters room for a range of archaeology-based family activities. You’ll be able to excavate artefacts from our dig boxes, contribute to our community Lego Build and explore local communities of the past through object handling and crafts!
Suitable for ages 6 to 12 years old.
There are two sessions:
10am – 12pm
2pm – 4pm
These Dig & Discover sessions will be taking place in The Hub and The Education Room. Please ask our front desk staff on the day for directions to either of the rooms.
