At the Mann Art Gallery (MAG), we believe that visual art is for everyone. Whether you’re a young student, a senior in care, or a lifelong learner, our Education Program is designed to inspire creativity, encourage dialogue, and support artistic expression for people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds.


What We Offer

Our Education Program includes a wide variety of experiences tailored for school groups, families, seniors, and community organizations. Here’s a closer look at some of the ways we bring art to life:


Book a Tour & Studio Project

Our in-gallery school tours include:

  • Exhibition Tour (30 minutes): Explore current exhibitions through conversation and discovery.

  • Studio Project (90 minutes): Create your own artwork inspired by what you’ve seen.

Each visit is curriculum-connected (3–5 links per program) and tailored to your group's specific needs. Flexible scheduling available.

Cost: $3 per person | $30 minimum


One Picture Gallery Program

We bring the art to you! One original artwork from our collection comes to your school or community group, sparking discussion and creativity through a customized art lesson.
