An Archaeological Field School Experience

Buddy Wingard is proud to announce that his short film “An Archeological Field School Experience at Redcliffe Plantation State Historic Site, Beech Island, South Carolina” has been accepted to the South Carolina Underground Film Festival being held in Columbia, SC the weekend of November 8th. The short film focuses on archaeology and sharing the profession with students from Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) who otherwise would not have the opportunity. The students in the film volunteered their spring break to study with the instructors and shared their experiences during the process.

The film will be shown during the 1:30 block of films on Sunday November 10th at The Nickelodeon Theater, located at 1607 Main Street Columbia, SC 29201. This is always a great festival with a lot of diverse films.


Challenge the conventional. Create the exceptional. No Limits.
