Join Texas Science & Natural History Museum and the Texas Historical Commission for the Texas Archeology Month Fair, a free public celebration of Texas history, heritage and archeology on Saturday, Sept. 26 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

This family-friendly event features interactive experiences, demonstrations and exhibits led by archeologists and partner organizations from across Texas. Visitors of all ages can explore hands-on tabling activities, meet experts and discover how archeologists study the history of peoples and cultures through artifacts and other evidence of past human activity.

This year’s fair, held at Texas Science & Natural History Museum will also highlight the connections and distinctions between archeology and paleontology, offering opportunities to learn how archeologists study human history while paleontologists investigate ancient life through fossils. Through interactive experiences and engaging conversations with experts, visitors can explore how both fields help us better understand the past.

The Texas Archeology Fair is just one event during the statewide celebration of Texas Archeology Month, promoting awareness and appreciation of Texas’ rich cultural heritage and archeological resources.
