Education
“The museum … offers challenging learning opportunities to engage, educate, and enrich audiences of all ages.” – From the museum’s mission statement
Tours
The museum offers tours for children, students, and adults of the permanent art collection and temporary exhibitions. In order to secure a desired time for a tour and ensure a learning experience, we encourage groups to schedule their tours at least one month in advance by calling 785.532.7718 or e-mailing the senior educator (klwalk@ksu.edu). Every effort will be made to accommodate all requests.
Resources
The museum has a number of educational resources that can be used in the museum while others are available for loan to schools, early childhood programs, social service organizations, and home school groups.
Volunteer Opportunities
Individuals are always welcomed to inquire about volunteering as a docent or in other areas of the museum, such as the education, registration, curatorial, and marketing departments. A variety of skills and experience are always needed.
