School Tours

Kids looking at art

Project Look is the Art Center's field trip program for elementary schools. Students start their visit with a tour of the Art Center's galleries with an educator. Educators lift student voices and opinions by asking open-ended questions. Following the tour, students take part in a hands-on artmaking activity.

Project Look

  • Enriches the art curriculum and provides opportunities for cross-curricular connections and multidisciplinary education.
  • Appeals to a variety of learning styles.
  • Connects the experience of seeing art with making art as a response to the tour.
  • Encourages active participation.
  • Fosters critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, and communication.

Registration for the 2024-2025 school year begins August 22 at 8:30 a.m.
