ART FOR YOUNG MINDSArt is a powerful teaching vehicle that touches students` hearts and minds in ways that books alone can`t do. To help teachers use the power of art in their curriculum activities, the Bowers has developed three types of student tours:
SELF-GUIDED TOURS OF SPECIAL EXHIBITIONS
Special exhibition audio-guide tours are available for grades 2-12.
Tour enhancements, such as art-making workshops and dramatic
performances, are also available.

the educational experience of visitors.
