Who first uncovered Northern Kentucky’s buried past? From WPA excavations to local digs that shaped our understanding of the region, archaeology has a long and fascinating history in the Tri-State. Behringer-Crawford Museum’s next NKY History Hour will reveal those stories on Tuesday, August 26, at 6:30 p.m. with BCM archaeologist Jeannine Kreinbrink and Doug VonStrohe of K&V Cultural Resources Management.
NKY History Hour is free to attend, but registration is required for Zoom participation.
The event will also be streamed live on BCM’s Facebook page. All recordings of past episodes can be viewed at www.bcmuseum.org.
NKY History Hour programs occur every other Tuesday evening from 6:30-7:30 p.m. and are free to the public. To support NKY History Hour and access many other entertaining and thought-provoking programs for free, join BCM. Donations to support the museum’s educational programming are welcome through BCM’s website.
Behringer-Crawford Museum hosts NKY History Hour as part of its mission to celebrate Northern Kentucky’s heritage and community stories.
