THE WHATCOM MUSEUM is a major resource for K-12 school classes, providing school presentations to approximately 25,000 students. The Whatcom Museum offers interactive tours of both temporary and permanent exhibitions led by staff and trained docents. While many of our programs target a specific age range or curriculum unit, most programs can be arranged and reconfigured for any grade level, from pre-school through high school and college. We encourage teachers to preview exhibits and input their education needs.Teachers may choose self-guided tours as well. Whatcom Museum education programs are aligned with local school district curriculum and the Washington State Essential Academic Learning Requirements.
