New Website for Teachers

Our new website uses the creativity of artists to inspire creativity in teachers and their students. 

Creativity Resource provides images of artworks in the DAM collection, detailed information, and lesson plans for early childhood (ages 3–5), elementary (grades K–5), and secondary (grades 6–12) students. The site also offers quick lesson ideas, a library of creativity resources, and much more!

School Tours

Tours for grades K–12 are available Tuesday–Friday through May 22, 2009. All school tours address Colorado Model Content Standards (CMCS).

Follow the links below to book a tour online. Space is limited, so please schedule tours at least three weeks in advance. Download our information sheet for supervision, fees, lunch policies, access services, cancellation policies, and other useful tips.
