Art for Everyone! K12 Program at the Getty Museum
Whether on site at the Getty Center or the Getty Villa museums, or online with Virtual Art Explorations, your students will engage in deep investigations and close looking, drawing exercises, movement activities, and more. During a Getty field trip, students explore a selection of artworks from the Getty collection using our inquiry-based learning approach that centers students' experiences and helps to foster a deep appreciation for the arts and culture.

You guys are amazing! My school in East L.A. has zero funds for field trips. You provided a field trip that not only educated, but inspired our students (and teachers too!)
Each year the Getty welcomes more than 160,000 K-12 students to the Getty Center and Villa to experience tours, programs, and creative spaces. A trip to the Getty is a multi-media experience; therefore, learning is enhanced through sensory and tactile inputs. Conversations about art can also spark an appreciation of culture and increase students' ability to think critically about the arts.
