Mission Garden is inaugurating this Fall’s interactive Archaeology Days, taking place each fourth Saturday of the month through spring of 2023. Fourth Saturday Archaeology Days are an expansion of the Hands-on Archaeology programs at Mission Garden in past years.

Join ancient technologies expert Allen Denoyer for our Hands-On Archaeology program at Mission Garden, Tucson’s birthplace. This program allows kids of all ages to try out fascinating ancient technologies. It might be etching shells, painting with natural pigments, or throwing spears with atlatls.
