archaeology and anthropology museum
The Penn Museum presents global archaeology and cultural collections across multiple galleries where families can see artifacts from ancient Egypt, the Middle East, Mesoamerica, and more. Kids can join short, hands-on family programs (Family Adventures), hear object-focused talks at Cartifacts stations, and use sensory bags to support inclusive visits. Galleries, a museum café, and outdoor garden seating give families options to explore at their own pace.
