Do you have any stone artifacts or Northeastern Native American cultural items? Between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m., on August 24th the Research Department of the Institute for American Indian Studies will be hosting an Artifact I.D. Day. For many years, this event has drawn interesting artifacts to identify such as fossils, arrowheads, rock specimens, and Native American handmade items. Visitors are encouraged to bring their most unusual objects.
It is fun to join the conversation as the Educators at IAIS identify and provide interesting commentary about your items. While they can’t appraise or speculate about the value of an object, they can certainly talk about the who, what, when, where, and how of your mystery items!
Space is limited and pre-registration is appreciated. Please visit their website to register online. Questions? Please call (860) 868 0518 or email events@iaismuseum.org . Price of participation: $15 for Non-Members, $5 for IAIS Members.
