2026 National Archaeology Educators Conference

The story of Africatown inspires us to educate, engage, and unite as a community of archaeology educators to create impactful, collective learning experiences and connections to place and people.

Join us at the Archaeology Museum on the campus of the University of South Alabama in Mobile, AL from July 28-31, 2026. The conference is professional development for the Project Archaeology network of state coordinators, master teachers, facilitators, and others who are interested in joining us to connect people to the past to protect and honor our shared cultural heritage. Project Archaeology can help you discover the past and shape the future wherever you teach: K-12 classrooms, museums, youth programs, and undergraduate education. The conference provides professional development through sessions, workshops, field trips, and speakers. There are many opportunities for networking and mentorships. Plus, we connect you with award-winning educational materials!
