Teachers, we know there’s a lot on your plates—so let us take the stress out of planning school tours!
Join us for a one-hour virtual info session that will cover everything you need to know to create an exciting and fulfilling experience for your students. We’ll show you what to expect at every stage of the process, from booking your visit to getting everyone home safely. You won’t have to worry about any logistical “surprises”, so you can put your attention where it matters most.
Not sure how a Crystal Bridges tour can fit into your curriculum? We’ll give all teachers and educators a preview of upcoming exhibitions, resources, and teacher PD opportunities to help you better plan your school year. See what themes, artworks, and activities will be on offer at the museum so that you can decide how best to work art into the plans you already have.
There’s enough stress in education already—don’t let tours add to it.
