Educational Programs


Students from the Adirondack Semester participate
in a synesthetic drumming and drawing workshop.

Guided Tours
The Gallery welcomes individuals and groups for guided tours of exhibitions and works of art from the permanent collection in order to provide learning opportunities and museum experiences for students of all ages. Gallery staff and trained student employees will create individualized tours to meet your needs, as formal or informal as you require.

Exhibitions and works of art can illuminate topics in a broad variety of courses in the Arts, Humanities, and Sciences.  Our primary goal is to integrate the Gallery's activities and events into the University's liberal arts curriculum, while working in partnership with regional public and private schools as well.  Community groups are also encouraged to visit and arrange educational tours.  We are seeking to develop creative ways in which to utilize the resources of the Gallery.  Contact Cathy Tedford, Director, in advance to schedule a tour or discuss your ideas.

Public Programs
In conjunction with rotating exhibitions, collection-related projects, and University courses, the Gallery presents slide lectures, panel discussions, demonstrations and workshops, films, and videos during the academic year.  All programs are free and open to the public.  Guest artists, curators, and lecturers are usually available for course-related visits and can travel off-campus; contact Cathy Tedford, Director, in advance.
