Anyone can schedule an educational experience and the museum. We work with school
groups, community groups, college/university, and the general public. There is no
charge for a one-time museum experience.
We work with each group individually, and will tailor the experience to your needs.
We will view the artwork, engage in discussions, and if time permits, go into the
studio to create new artwork based on the art observed, ideas explored and conversations
we have had in the galleries. We recommend at least 45 minutes for an experience and
an additional 45 minutes for a studio activity.
Please schedule your self-guided experience! An education team member or visitor services
associate may be available to greet you and answer questions. The museum is a busy place, and it is helpful to know what groups may be visiting. It will also
help you to know what other concurrent events will be occurring during your visit.
We relish planning with teachers to meet their needs, including pre and post visit activities. Contact our Curator of Academic Engagement, Alex Ziegler.
We prefer to keep a low student/adult ratio (10/1) when possible. We will work with you to address your needs.
Check our Exhibitions page to see what exhibits are on display in the galleries. Then talk with a member of the education team. With advance notice, we can explore options for viewing pieces from our collection that are not currently on display.
