A Self-Guided School Tour at the Audain Art Museum.

School Group Visits

An important element of the Audain Art Museum’s mandate is to engage students in learning about historical and contemporary art from British Columbia.

The Audain Art Museum team is excited to have launched guided school programs that complement BC curriculums and enrich the education of children and youth.

The Museum has dedicated Wednesdays to hosting student groups. To be added to the distribution list for school program information, please contact connect@audainartmuseum.com. Thank you for your interest.
