Come for a behind-the-scenes visit to the Carter Collections Center at Strawbery Banke Museum. Join Curator Elizabeth Farish and Archaeologist Alix Martin for a tour of the Carter Collections Center. Upstairs visitors will see how various collections are stored and see a sneak preview of the objects that will be installed in the new Cousins apartment opening later this year. Downstairs, visitors will learn about the museum's archaeological program and see artifacts recovered from Puddle Dock.
You will have the opportunity to visit Museum collections on the second and third floors of the Carter Center. There is no elevator, so if you can't climb stairs, you can enjoy the artifacts on the ground floor .
