Bellevue Arts Museum: Education

Education

Bellevue Arts Museum has great opportunities for educators and school groups

Bellevue Arts Museum invites you and your class to pay us a visit. Our exhibitions change regularly and explore the major mediums of fine arts and craft including fiber, clay, wood, glass, metal and design. A tour of Bellevue Arts Museum’s galleries serves as a great extension of classroom work and provides several opportunities to develop projects and assignments that relate the works on display to curriculum.

Teacher memberships are only $30 for the year
