Archaeology for the Curious, is taught by experienced regional professionals
from organizations such as the National Forest Service, BLM and the University
of Oregon. The program is co-sponsored by the Washington County Museum and
Portland Community College. The first two sessions will be held from 10 a.m. -
3 p.m. on Jan. 31 and Feb. 14, 2009 at the Rock Creek Campus of Portland
Community College in Building 7, Rm. 121. Topics include archaeology basics as
well as information on artifacts, laws and ethics, Northwest archaeology and
rock art, site stewardship and volunteering. The cost is just $25 for both
sessions.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

four consecutive Saturdays between Feb. 21 and March 14. Because class size is

six-session package is $90 and includes a one-year OAS membership or $60 for
current members.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
