Legacy: Hands on the Past is celebrating ten years of educating and entertaining school aged citizens of San Antonio and South Texas. We provide tours to children grades K-12 at our lab. We also offer auditorium presentations at your school or facility. See School Visits for more information. Map and directions to CAR

Our basic program includes:

1) The basics of archaeology

2) The prehistoric cultures of Texas

3) Historic San Antonio

Custom programs can also be created to supplement your current curriculum. To book a tour for your class, after-school program, or Boy/Girl Scout troop, call us at 210-458-4462 or contact Lynn Yakubik at mailto:car@utsa.edu. We cannot accept credit-card payments for fees, but do accept cash, checks and money orders. We also accept purchase orders from schools, or we can provide invoices to schools.

The Center for Archaeological Research would like to thank the following organizations for their funding of the Legacy program:
