SCHOOL TOURSWho doesn’t love a field trip? There is really no reason not to
bring your students to the Akron Art Museum this year. Our
tours are fun, educational, and interactive- no boring lectures
here, thank you very much. The museum’s exhibitions and
permanent collection address themes and concepts that apply
to all subject areas from art to math to science and everything
in between. If those aren’t reasons enough, the museum
can reimburse your school or district for transportation and
substitute teacher costs.
