Parking will be extremely limited in the N1 lot adjacent to the Burke Thursday, May 2 and Saturday, May 4. Please see our Directions & Parking page for alternative parking and public transit options if you're visiting on these days. The Burke Museum will be closed Friday, May 3 for our annual spring fundraiser. We will open again at 10 a.m. on Saturday, May 4. Plan your visit.
From the food we put in our bodies to the furniture we put in our homes, human life is shaped by “stuff” all around us—and our stuff reveals surprising truths about our lives.
We offer several scholarships each year to students, traditional knowledge holders, archaeology professionals and others to use the Burke’s archaeological collections.
