All 4th, 5th and 6th Grade teachers: Looking to strengthen cross-curricular connections in the classroom? Museum To Go has you covered! Sign up for 3 FREE, interactive visual arts experiences that will ignite students' imaginations and encourage self-reflection. When Stark County teachers partner with Canton Museum of Art's teaching artists, it's like building a multidisciplinary learning lab in your classroom. Each Museum To Go classroom visit includes a virtual exhibit tour, an interactive lesson, and a curriculum based hands-on art experience focused on social-emotional learning. Museum To Go is registering the first 100 Stark County classrooms now! Please see details below.
