Finding Some Good in the Bad and the Ugly: Critical Views and Lessons-Learned from Public Archaeology and Outreach Programs
Part of: Society for Historical Archaeology 2019
This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "Finding Some Good in the Bad and the Ugly: Critical Views and Lessons-Learned from Public Archaeology and Outreach Programs," at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.
Presentations and publications about public archaeology and outreach programming are often mostly self-congratulatory and gloss-over problems and unintended consequences. This panel of brief presentations and open discussion brings a more reflexive and self-critical perspective. Participants will share and discuss problems, and even outright failures, to identify lessons-learned and opportunities for better, more effective programs.
