Education

The Aldrich Museum is a laboratory for museum education: we develop, implement, and evaluate programs that are as inventive, challenging and timely as the art we exhibit. Our programs and materials are designed to help people think in new directions by focusing on the process of looking at and analyzing contemporary art with the hope that these skills translate to the everyday lives of our viewers.
