Dunkeld YAC

Dunkeld YAC is open to everyone aged 8–16 years. The club gets involved in all sorts of activities, including fieldwork and excavation, demonstrations, craft activities, museum object handling, visiting and investigating archaeological sites and historic places and lots more.

Dunkeld YAC is based at Dunkeld Community Archive which is part of the Chapter House Museum Trust, Registered Charity Number SC024984, and was formed in 1994 to promote research and share the stories of Dunkeld’s vast historical past.

If you want to know more about how we recruit YAC volunteers and make sure children at YAC clubs are well looked after, check out our FAQs.
