Rock of Ages

1/8/2014 | Missouri State Museum | Jefferson City, MO

Long before metal, stone was the material used for tools. Native tribes mastered the methods to create stone tools that have lasted for thousands of years. Join museum interpreter Chris Fritsche to examine some of these early tools and learn more about them. Feel free to bring in some of your own stone tools if you would like to share them with others. Please note that this program is on the second Wednesday of January, not the first Wednesday as is customary. The program will be held in the museum classroom, which is located in the History Hall in the east wing of the State Capitol. Click here to read the news release.

This program continues the programming series, "Museum after Hours," which occurs on the first Wednesday of each month. Missouri State Museum galleries stay open until 9 p.m.

Program time: 7 p.m.
