​​​	FAQ Archaeology​ ​The Visitor Center houses "FAQ Archaeology", an interactive experience focused on some of the questions most frequently asked of archaeologists such as how they know where to dig and what they do with the artifacts that they find. Visitors can enjoy hands-on conservation activities and can also view collections from each county in Maryland.

"FARMERS, PATRIOTS and TRAITORS: Southern Maryland and the War of 1812" Imagine foreign troops have invaded your community. Some say that these troops have no business being here, but others are helping them by serving as spies or navigators—whether because they believe in their cause or because they are afraid, it is difficult to say. What would you do? Fight them in hopes of keeping your farm and family intact? Join them and pray that you have chosen the winning side? Jefferson Patterson Park & Museum’s exhibit, "FARMERS, PATRIOTS, and TRAITORS: Southern Maryland and the War of 1812" forces visitors to ask themselves these questions, while learning about a conflict that is so important to Maryland's history.  Call the Visitor Center for availability of this exhibit.​
