ART & ARCHAEOLOGY

In this in-person art and history hybrid program, students will learn about archaeology, and the history of how clay was used by the local Wendat and Ojibway peoples.  The program will begin with an interactive archaeological dig in which students will get to excavate and document their own historical artefacts.  The program will then culminate in the creation of two small clay pots which students will construct using historical methods.  The program adheres to the social studies curriculum as students learn about early indigenous communities through the excavation and re-creation of clay artefacts.
