Tour Options
Guided Tours (Reservations Required)
Docent-led school tours require reservations. Please book at least two weeks in advance. When selecting a date, please identify back-up dates in case your first choice is unavailable. One week before your visit, your lead docent will contact you to discuss your content and curriculum connections.
Self-Guided Tours
With a self-guided visit, you are free to explore the collection in a way that best suits your class. In general, for students in kindergarten through second grade, we suggest that you concentrate on a few objects. For older students, we recommend one hour of focused looking and thirty minutes of discussion. Teachers are invited to consult with the RMAC Curator of Education regarding content for self-guided tours.
Both guided and self-guided school groups are required the following chaperone-to-student ratios:
Grades k-2: 1 adult per 5 students
Grades 3-6: 1 adult per 10 students
Grades 7-12: 1 adult per 15 students
Chaperones must accompany all student groups at all times. Teachers and chaperones are responsible for their students’ behavior. We encourage accompanying adults to support the teacher’s goals for the museum visit and to model active listening.
To schedule a tour or discuss educational materials and opportunities please contact Curator of Education, Amanda Nicholson.
