The Museum of Art offers a variety of educational programs. Supplementing its teacher workshops, the museum gives teachers the opportunity to speak with museum staff, curators, and volunteers, regarding the museum as an educational resource. In those evening programs, teachers listen to short presentations, take gallery tours, and get an overview of the museum's educational programming. A similar program is offered to school administrators.

Educational materials that cover broad historical and cultural areas designed for use with specific objects from the museum's collections may be available for loan. These materials could be applied to collection objects at other institutions. Contact the Curator of Education for more information.
