Community programs at the Museum enable participants to be engaged in an active learning experience with original works of art and slides. Group participants will be encouraged to look at, think about and find meaning in art through careful observation and focused discussions.
We are pleased to offer these programs to non-profit community organizations that serve young people, adults and seniors such as libraries, assisted living centers, arts agencies, community centers, camps, and social service agencies. Programs take place in the Museum and/or off-site at your facility.
Programs can accommodate the needs of people with all abilities and can be arranged as a single or multi-visit experience. A limited number of programs are available at a reduced rate.
