HISTORY HUNTERS: THE 250-YEAR DIG

Jul 18th, 2026 10:00 AM-11:00 AM

To celebrate the nation's 250th year, the Mobile Public Library is going underground to explore how history is saved at a FREE, family-oriented archaeological event on Saturday, July 18, from 10 to 11 a.m. at the Ben May Main Library. Children are invited to become "history detectives" by practicing the same skills real archaeologists use to study what life was like in 1776 and beyond. For more information, go to www.mobilepubliclibrary.org/event/history-hunters-250-year-dig-14707.
