About

Kids play archaeologist for an afternoon. The workshop starts at a mock dig in the museum's workshop room, where they dig up and record traces left by pre-Columbian civilizations. Then the group heads into the collections to match those clues against the original objects and learn about the cultures of Central America. A good fit for kids who like hands-on detective work and history. Adults take part alongside them.

Under 18 €8, adults €16
