Experts will be on hand from PSU and the community to tell you the story behind your prehistoric or historic object such as how old it is, how it functioned, or if a bone, what animal it’s from. No appraisals will be given. Besides artifact identification, we’ll have several exhibits, demonstrations and hands-on activities for adults and kids -- like stone tool making, animal bone identification, and local archaeology projects. Come for 5 minutes or stay the whole time, and remember... it is totally free to attend! </SPAN></P>
