The Eiteljorg Offers Unique Experiences For Students!
What to Expect
Guided tours typically last 45-60 minutes and can be designed for all grade levels. We may recommend larger groups have a 90 minute tour to ensure all students are able to experience our exhibits comfortably. An Eiteljorg guide will escort your group through the museum, focusing on the areas you request. You may also be able to take advantage of a studio experience with a visiting artist in residence. Be sure to ask!
