Yale Center for British Art Guided Tours for K-12 School Groups

School and community groups can explore the center’s collections, architecture, and special exhibitions on an interactive docent-led tour. These free tours encourage close looking, critical thinking, and creative evaluation. Upon request, tours can be customized to connect content from the collections to a class curriculum. Classroom and homeschool teachers are also welcome to bring their students and lead self-guided visits. The center’s educational programming is designed to support visual literacy instruction and complement curriculum goals and standards. Bringing art into the learning process builds students’ inquiry, observation, description, and critical-looking skills.
