INVITATIONS!

Sunday begins the last week of AHAP2009! The past four weeks have flow by, despite the drizzly weather. We have met many of our season's goals, and AHAP2009 and DHPT are excited to share findings with family, friends, neighbors, and visitors. So, we invite you to TWO end of Season, Open House opportunities! As always, please check here for weather updates regarding rain dates or locations.

Wednesday, July 1, 1-4PM: STUDENT PRESENTATIONS

  • shine: on site, 762 Dartmouth St., South Dartmouth, MA 02748
  • rain: UMass Dartmouth, Dion Bldg., Rm. 110, 285 Old Westport Rd., North Dartmouth, MA 02747

All are invited to drop in/drop during our final class meeting of Sociology/Anthropology 180-407. Students will each give a 15 minute presentation on their final class project. These projects include interpretive modules that use new archaeological information to build on existing understandings of house history and significance. Come see the site and artifacts and hear first-hand from those who discovered material history here!


Weekend: END OF SEASON OPEN HOUSE

  • shine: Saturday July 4th, 11AM-3PM, on site, 762 Dartmouth St., South Dartmouth, MA 02748
  • rain: Sunday July 5th, 11AM-3PM, on site, 762 Dartmouth St., South Dartmouth, MA
No worries if you can't make Wednesday's event, we are also having a weekend Open House on Saturday July 4th (if shine) or Sunday July 5th (if rain). The students may not be there, but you can still see artifacts, ask questions, and learn about house history. As you are tooling around town on the 4th, celebrate the holiday by stopping by one of Dartmouth's own historic sites, a house linked to events of the Revolution itself!
