Education & Outreach Opportunities

Working in conjunction with community partners, the Springfield Museums in Springfield, MA, have created a variety of educational programs based on the Currier & Ives collection that include an adult lecture series;  college curriculum units in history, art history and literature; teacher-created lesson plans for elementary and high school students that link to social studies, English language arts and art; and curriculum-based museum visits that teach American history through art for area students.
