In 2022, ARI focused on our initiative to make archaeology accessible to all! Thanks to your support, together we are making it happen! Here are some of our wins for this initiative…
We removed the economic barrier of set pricing and moved to a suggested donation model for all of our hands-on experiences.
We secured funding for youth of all ages to learn from our Youth Archaeology Club and summer day camps at no cost.
We secured funding for local and regional schools to field trip with us at no cost.
We secured funding for Veterans to get hands-on training through our VALOR program in hopes of offering a career after service.
We secured funding to purchase a golf-cart to transport visitors from the parking area to the field and through our augmented reality trails.
We found 10+ scholarship opportunities for field students to pay for field school.
We secured 50% of the funding needed to purchase a 12-seat passenger van to transport the public for our local and regional archaeology tours….help us close the gap! Help us make archaeology accessible through transportation. We only need $21,555 to purchase the van. Together we can make it happen! Donate today to keep this initiative alive!
