Watch learning come alive when you bring your students to CDM!

CDM School Tours illuminate our standards-supporting exhibits and spark student inquiry with one-of-a-kind experiences. Choose from a two-hour Discovery Tour to take in all the Museum has to offer or focus on science learning with our STEM Tours, facilitated by our fantastic team. And don't miss a special opportunity to participate in our temporary exhibit tours, which change based on the themes in our temporary exhibit gallery! Hamilton County Schools kindergarten classes may visit for an Imagine! tour, sponsored by ArtsBuild at no cost.

Reservations must be made at least three weeks in advance. Payment can be made by check or credit card at the time of group check-in.
