The annual DC Day of Archaeology Festival gathers archaeology organizations in the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia together in one location to inform our community about local archaeology resources. The event is organized by Archaeology in the Community and held in June as part of DC Archaeology Month. ​Find hands-on activities for all ages at this free, fun, family-friendly event!
