Archaeological Dig Volunteer Days

Archaeological Dig Community Volunteer Days
Wylie House Museum, 307 E. 2nd St., Bloomington (812)855-6224 [email protected]
Join IU archaeologists and their field school students for three hours of involvement with a historic site archaeology project.
Indiana University’s Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archaeology and the Wylie House Museum join together for a special project investigating our local Hoosier cultural heritage as part of IU’s Bicentennial celebration. Wylie House Museum is the 1835 house of IU’s first president Andrew Wylie and is IU’s oldest property. For four weeks this summer, IU students will learn archaeological field methods while searching for two buried garden facilities dating to 1859. You’re invited to join them for a few hours. Spaces are limited. Ages 18 & up.
There are four volunteer day opportunities throughout the month of June: Friday mornings, 9am-noon. To ensure that the maximum number of interested parties are able to participate, we kindly request that you register for just one session.
Questions? Contact Carey Beam, Director of the Wylie House Museum or Melody Pope, Curator of Collections, Glenn Black Laboratory of Archaeology.
