Pre-K – 12 Groups

Students who engage in the arts learn how to observe, focus, reflect, envision, and express, as well as how to collaborate and work through challenges. The arts can provide intriguing and accessible points of entry into both the familiar and new, often sparking learning in other subject areas.

Through school programs that include guided tours, hands-on art making experiences, and professional development workshops, GFS encourages creative and innovative thinking in our local communities and across the state.

TOURS

Guided Tours are available for an additional cost for grades 4th – 12th grade school, camp, and youth groups numbering 50 students or less. Trained guides cover a select number of sculptures and teachers can pick one of these three tour types found here. Guided tours are an additional $5 per student and are subject to availability.

Pre-K – 12 groups are limited to 50 students per school per day. Due to the large number of tour requests we receive, scheduling a visit at least six weeks in advance is highly recommended. All requests are subject to availability.
