About
This screening is for guests aged 18+ and is not intended for children. Contains graphic language.
Join us as we explore archaeology on and off the screen with Dr. Kate Cooper, Nick Mirkopoulos Associate Curator of Ancient Greece & Rome, and ROM Executive Writer, Colin Fleming. Together, they will discuss Dr. Cooper’s work at ROM and her experiences on real-life archeological digs.
Following the discussion, enjoy a screening of the pilot episode of a new comedy series, DIG, that follows a team of dedicated archaeologists (and less-dedicated college students) who spend their summer working on a dig site in Greece, where their discovery of a rare artifact sends them on the adventure of a lifetime.
Stay for a post-screening discussion where Dr. Cooper and Colin will dig deeper into the episode, separating archaeological fact from fiction and exploring what DIG gets right about the world of archaeology.
