For those beginning their journey

By joining as an Explorer, you can:

• Receive the Society’s newsletter, with updates on new discoveries, articles, and activities

• Stay informed about lectures, events, and opportunities taking place across Kent

• Discover archaeological sites, finds, and local histories through the Society’s online resources

• Learn more about ways to take part, contribute, or deepen your involvement over time

Whether your interest is casual or growing, becoming an Explorer is a simple way to stay connected and begin your journey into Kent’s archaeology and history.

Go further

Many Explorers choose to take their interest further by becoming Members of the Society, gaining access to publications, archives, events, and opportunities to participate more directly in archaeological and historical work.

Explorers go free

Becoming an Explorer is a simple way to begin - whether you are discovering Kent’s past for the first time or returning to a long-standing interest.
