Faculty and staff of UWF’s 2024-25 LEAD, which stands for leadership, enhancement, activities and development, class worked with the Archaeology Institute to prepare the anchor for outdoor exhibition and create an exhibit space at the Archaeology Institute on UWF’s Pensacola campus. Previously, the anchor had been stored for curation in the University’s archaeological collections facilities after being sent to UWF for conservation in 2014.
