The Archaeology Education A Team: Public Archaeology and Public Media

Summary

This is a poster submission presented at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.

The pandemic created unique challenges for public archaeologists, but it also presented unique opportunities. Using digital media allows public archaeologists to broaden their audience in ways not possible with in person events. One way to maximize this potential is by partnering with public media outlets. They already have a large dedicated audience interested in educational content and they have a similar goal of educating the public, thus making it an ideal partnership. During the pandemic FPAN had the opportunity to partner with WFSU/PBS public media. This poster highlights some of those projects and discusses the experience and outcomes.
