LUAS

The Llano Uplift Archeological Society (LUAS) will host their annual Archeology Fair on Saturday. March 24, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the LCRA Nightengale Archaeological Center in Kingsland. The event is free.
Visitors will be able to see how the original Hill Country inhabitants lived. LUAS members will conduct guided tours along our interpretive trail. The onsite museum will be open for visitors to see artifacts which are thousands of years old.
They'll be able to practice their skills using ancient hunting devices such as the 'atlatl' and rabbit sticks. They may even bring their own artifacts for experts to identify.
This year LUAS will have several other regional and state archeology groups joining them. The Texas Archeological Society, Travis County Archeological Society, Hill County Archeology Association (Kerrville), and LCRA Archeology Division will set up exhibit tables.

The new spring program, A Taste of Nature, will continue with a program digging into archaeology Saturday, Feb. 25, at Numinous Coffee Roasters in Marble Falls.

The Upper Highland Lakes Nature Center will bring young and old a dose of “Vitamin N (nature)” with their Saturday morning latte or hot chocolate in a series of free programs.

“We began an eight-program series Feb. 11 highlighting the beauty and wonder of the Texas Hill Country,” said Paula Richards, a Highland Lakes Master Naturalist and a member of the board of directors of the non-profit UHLNC. “They take place at Numinous on alternating Saturday mornings from 10-11 a.m. Folks can swing by, grab a coffee and a scone, and hang out with Master Naturalists, who will gladly add a dash of Hill Country nature.”

“We especially want to excite young people about science and the wonders of nature,” said Susan Yewell, one coordinator of the event.
