Much of the content and access to the libraries are free, while CWA led events typically have an associated fee. Please reach out to us as some costs have been off-set with donations.
What's New at CWA
We divided our archeology content into activities you can do on your own, CWA events, and resources available at the Center.
Explorers has self-guided activities for
grown-ups and kids, and includes stories of our own exploration. This includes day trips to Wisconsin archaeological sites, reading lists, lesson plans for grandparents and home schoolers as well as a blog of the latest Center observations and activities .
Community is focused on CWA led
events including classroom visits and field trips, lectures for your group or organization, adult education and site visits, and exciting demonstrations of ancient practices such as flint knapping.
Collections are all the resources
the Center. This includes our extensive set of books, selected professional and general interest periodicals and curated set of actual artifacts.
