Every weekend in October, go on a hunt for enchanted ingredients!
Your mission: help the witch find the ingredients for her magic potion, stolen by the museum’s archaeologist. Explore the laboratory, search for clues, and get your hands on the secret recipe by solving puzzles. You’ll even be able to prepare and drink the magic potion. Will it enchant you?
Enjoy this original and fun activity to introduce your children, young or old, to the exciting world of archaeology and archaeoscience.
Archaeology: A Scientific Adventure
We often imagine archaeologists digging with their trowels and brushes in search of a treasure buried under layers of earth. But once the treasure is discovered, the real work begins, and archaeologists rely on a host of tools to help them: archaeoscience.
This exhibition reveals the unexpected toolkit of modern archaeologists. How do physics, chemistry, biology, geology, new research techniques, and technology help archaeologists study and decode the past of artifacts? And what if you, young and old, took part in this scientific adventure?
A captivating, immersive, enriching, and fun experience that will make you rediscover the science lab you thought you knew!
The exhibition is made possible thanks to the financial support of Canadian Heritage, and the archaeoscience activities are presented by Desjardins.
