Art Workshops (grades K – 5)
A fun and interactive way for your students to study artwork.  Students will study a selection from our permanent collection and learn about the art-making process, basic elements of art, and examination and actually create their own piece of artwork.  All workshops are based on West Virginia Content Standards and Objectives.  


Student Workshops (grades K – 8)
Looking for a great way for students to learn while still having fun?  Bring your whole class for one of our hands-on Student Workshops!  We will get Inside Your Head learning about the human brain, see physics in action while playing with Toys or meet our scaly animal friends in a live animal workshop.  All workshops last approximately 45 minutes and are only an additional $2 per student.
