Cape Cod & Islands Art Educators Association
Bring your students to visit the museum!
Each school has received a Museum Guide from CCMA which includes information about the exhibitions held during the school year, as well as general information about the museum, so you can plan your visit around particular exhibitions if you wish. Please share this information with your colleagues.
In late summer, you should be able to download a PDF from this website the new exhibition information for the school year 2010-2011.
To enhance your visit, Museum Educators are available to give a guided tour of the museum; they are specially trained to work with children at all grade levels (many are retired teachers).
To schedule a visit, please call 508-385-4477 ext 16.
Opening and closing dates for exhibitions may vary slightly from published dates; please call the museum to verify information for your visit.
