Guided Tours
Our trained docents can focus a tour around a particular exhibition, geared toward topics covered in your curricula or provide a general tour of the Museum. Guided tours are offered throughout the week, during normal hours of operation: Tuesdays – Fridays, 9:30 – 5:00pm. Additional times may be available after hours, on Mondays, or weekends, by special arrangement.

Self-guided Tours
If you would like to bring your class or group in for a Museum visit, and wish to tour the galleries without a docent, a call to the Museum will suffice. Please let the desk receptionist know when you are coming and how many students will be in attendance. Please remember to review the tour size and chaperone guidelines.

GRANTS FOR TRANSPORTATION, NEW FOR 2010-11!
Thanks to a generous grant from the Albert W. and Edith V. Flowers Charitable Foundation the Museum will be able to offer fund transportation for some field trips during the 2011-2012 school year. Please follow this link for more information on how to apply for funding, or contact Educator Jill Malusky at (330) 833-4061 or jmalusky@massillonmuseum.org.

How to Schedule a Museum Tour

Art+History Projects
An exhibition related hands-on activity can be arranged through the Education Department to enhance your tour and visit to the Massillon Museum. Sharpie tie dye, Photobooth pictures, clay Cryptozoology tracks, and Mexican Dia de Los Muertos sugar skulls are just a few of our most popular art projects! We can tailor an art project to meet your curriculum needs, using themes of art, science, history or literature.

-The cost for this is $5 per student. The Massillon Museum provides the instructor and supplies for these activities. Payment may be made in cash, check or credit card.
