The Lost Towns Project, Inc., in cooperation with the Anne Arundel County Cultural Resources Section, has numerous volunteer opportunities year-round and welcomes newcomers of all levels of experience! Whether you want to assist in the field or in the lab, we have plenty of different experiences offered throughout the week.
We have volunteer opportunities in the Anne Arundel County archaeology lab at 839 Londontown Road, Edgewater, MD, as well as at archaeological sites around Anne Arundel County. The best way to find out about these is through our email newsletter (sign up here or view past issues here).
Volunteers help process artifacts by washing, labeling, sorting, and cataloging them. No experience is needed. Volunteers must register in advance. Children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
Currently, the lab is open to volunteers most Tuesdays, Wednesdays and one Saturday a month from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. You can check the lab schedule or sign up here. Future dates and times will be added to the same signup link. Fieldwork will be announced in the newsletter.
