Geology
The Garvies
Point Museum and Preserve is a center for
research on Long Island geology and a valued
resource in the study of the Island's Native
American archaeology. Reference collections
of original archaeological artifacts and
geological phenomena are maintained. These
are used in exhibits and Museum educational
programs and are available for special
research purposes. A gift shop provides
materials and publications related to the
exhibits and educational programming, with
emphasis on the natural history of Long
Island.
Over a dozen educational programs relating
to local geology, archaeology, and outdoor
environmental themes are offered to school
groups during school hours. Museum resources
are used to present topical lessons which
teachers may integrate into their classroom
curricula. A brochure describing these
Museum school programs is available from the
education desk. Brochures are available on
this site as well.
Advance reservations are required for all
classes. Call the education desk at (516)
571-8011 and pre-arrange visits to the
Museum.
Garvies Point Museum and Preserve is part of
the Department of Parks, Recreation and
Museums whose mission is to preserve and

and historic heritage. The Friends of
