Off the Beaten Path Tours
Grades 5-12
Offered Friday mornings at 11 am, this innovative 90-minute tour engages students through thought-provoking dialogue, in-gallery writing activities, and drawing exercises.
Self-Guided Tours
Grades 9-12
50 minutes not enough? Starting at noon, high-school teachers may independently lead groups of up to 30 students through the museum if they schedule a visit through the MCA’s Education Department and follow the guideline for self-guided visits.
