Do-It-Yourself: Self-Guided Visits
Self-guided visits allow educators to customize their museum experiences by leading their own tours through the galleries. We recommend that teachers divide their classes into small, chaperone-led groups of 5–10 students depending on their age.
Email us for a free educator pass to visit the galleries in advance of your class's visit.
Art Goes to School Multi-Session Program
Led by SAM Teaching Artists, Art Goes to School engages students in interactive art-making workshops that can be held in conjunction with a museum visit or as a stand-alone creative experience in your classroom.
Contact the School Tours Coordinator for requests more than 20 miles away from the museum.
