Developed to foster an ongoing appreciation for contemporary art,
our School to Museum Program presents contemporary art to your students
through lively discussions that open young minds and expand critical
thinking skills. When you schedule a tour, one or more docents will
be assigned to your group. Our docents are volunteer museum educators
who have been specially trained to tour the exhibitions at MOCA.Docents
engage students in active looking and discussion of ideas and observations
by focusing on a select number of works. For a small fee, you may
integrate an art-making activity (children ages 4-10) to your guided
tour experience at MOCA.
