School/Outreach Programs

CMOM can bring the same hands-on learning experience we provide at the Museum right to your school, library or community center. Our artist-educators arrive at your facility with their overflowing bag of artifacts, artist materials, skills and enthusiasm. CMOM educators can bring to your students a single workshop or a series of workshops around a single thematic program. CMOM can teach your students one of our celebrated programs or create a unique workshop to enhance your own curriculum.
 

Featured Program

Author Studies

CMOM’s English language arts programs build language skills through movement, art and storytelling. Students explore the process of authorship and illustration to develop critical thinking skills and foster a lifetime love of books and reading.
