School Visits
Virtual + In Person Tours
Poster House is thrilled to offer in-person and virtual interactive tours for all age groups.
VIRTUAL
Tours run approximately 60 minutes and involve the opportunity for a Q&A about the shows with our Lead Educators. Each tour combines a live speaker, high-resolution photos of posters in our shows, as well as video footage of the galleries. We also offer 90-minute programs that combine the tour with a participatory guided workshop, which simulates a virtual whiteboard where students can interact with poster designs for virtual programs and in person tours will use our Education Workshop.
IN-PERSON
Tours run approximately 60 minutes and involve the opportunity for a Q&A about the shows with our Lead Educators. Each tour utilizes object-based inquiry and visual analysis, in addition to discussion in the galleries. We also offer 90-minute programs that combine the tour with a participatory guided workshop, taking place in our Education Workshop.
