Hands-on Stone Tool–Making Demonstration at the Heritage Garden
February 14 @ 9:30 am - 11:30 am
Lots of extra events hosted by your Oro Valley Historical Society on Valentine’s Day!
Come on out to Steam Pump Ranch and discover all the things that OVHS has planned for you:
- America’s Semiquincentennial exhibit, 9am-noon
- A kitchen supply donation drive supporting Gap Ministries, 9am-noon

AND New on the 14th…
Join us in the Heritage Garden from 9:30–11:30 a.m. for a hands-on stone tool–making demonstration with archaeologist and garden volunteer John Barthelme. Using obsidian he provides (along with safety gear), kids can watch—and some may try—the ancient craft. Replica human and prehuman skulls and African animal bones will also be on display. Adults are welcome to observe and participate, too.
Our Tours and Museum visits are free, but donations are greatly appreciated.
