Hitchcock Nature Center and Red Barn Schoolhouse present Archaeology Roadshow, an engaging all-ages event featuring former Nebraska State Archaeologist Rob Bozell. Rob will introduce attendees to local archaeology and share insights into the hidden history.

Guests are encouraged to bring their own found objects—rocks, tools, fossils, and more—for a special “show and tell,” where Rob will help identify and explain the significance of each discovery. It’s an opportunity to explore the past, one artifact at a time. Registration is required, and all ages are welcome.

Rob Bozell brings over 30 years of expertise in Nebraska Archeology and the history of the Great Plains. In addition to his extensive tenure in public service, Rob is lending his expertise to the Red Barn Schoolhouse's ongoing Working Groups that strive to integrate and collaborate with subject matter experts for 2026 lesson planning and curriculum.

Red Barn Schoolhouse is a new public charter K-5 school in Crescent, Iowa. The school reflects community values for academic excellence grounded in the Iowa State Standards, outdoor learning, and arts integrated applications. Student projects in science and creative explorations will be guided by teachers in team with naturalists, artists, and community experts. Through  inquiry, hands-on exploration, artistic expression, and nature study, students will learn through an integrated process and discover a new-found confidence and desire to become lifetime learners. Opening Fall 2026. For more information: www.redbarnschoolhouse.org
