Link Your Class to the Museums
Our Mission
The Museums at W&L advance learning through direct engagement with the collections and facilitate an interdisciplinary appreciation of art, history, and culture.

Teaching with the Museums' art and decorative arts collection does not require art, cultural, or historical expertise. If you are looking to reinforce skills such as writing or close observation, adding a material culture component to class content, taking a break from the classroom, or all the above, we can help! We are dedicated to creating transformative teaching and learning experiences for students and can facilitate your class visit or lead discussions with your students at the Reeves Museum of Ceramics and Watson Galleries.
