Educators' Pages
Welcome to the Herrett Center Education Page. We hope it will help you get to know us better. Here you will find resources to help you better understand before your visit what we have to offer you and to assist you in planning your trip to the Center, including:
- Special programs and events
- Planetarium schedules
- Group events booking calendar
- Educational resources and information
- Hints for a great visit
- Questions, tests & other fun stuff
- Kits
To maximize the quality of your students' museum experience, we offer pre- and post- visit materials, and on-site "hands on" programs, called Kits. The Kits are designed for use during your visit to reinforce concepts and appeal to various students' learning styles. A complete list and description of the Kits currently available may be found here. We hope you will use this site to plan and enhance your visit.
Reservations are required for all Herrett Center programs. We request
that all groups schedule their visit even if they only intend to browse the
galleries to avoid conflicts. A calendar
is available to view potential, open visiting dates for any of the Center's
programs. Please review this before calling to schedule your visit.
Though we make every attempt to keep the scheduling calendar current, changes
may not yet be incorporated. Please have alternate dates and times in mind before
you call.
Thank you for your interest and cooperation. We hope to see you and your students soon at the Herrett Center for Arts and Science.
