Education - Global Village Museum of Arts and Cultures

Engaging and educational tours are a popular mainstay at the Global Village Museum of Arts and Cultures. For just $1/youth (ages 12 and under) or $3/youth (ages 13 and up), & $3/Seniors, a Museum tour is the perfect outing for curious and energetic minds. As a bonus, aides are admitted free.

Tours are welcome Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 4 pm. As part of the tour, youth can enjoy a scavenger hunt for gnomes as well as play musical instruments from around the world.

For reservations, please call Peter Koschnitzke, the Museum’s Administrative Assistant, at 970-221-4600.

The Culture Kit Program creates “Portable Museums” – large carrying cases filled with intriguing, relevant, and meaningful items on a specific topic across many cultures. Designed primarily for elementary and middle school students, the kits emphasize and celebrate diversity through a universal and unifying theme. These multi-cultural and multi-dimensional resources are used by public and private school educators as well as home school associations. The kits provide researched information on the various objects, maps, books, and teacher suggestions for activities in different age groups. The kits augment a student’s curriculum and provide hands-on interaction with both familiar and unfamiliar objects, thus bridging the gap between cultures. Each kit can be used independently or in conjunction with other kits.

For each of our exhibits, we have programs with Experts or Professors who provide informational and educational lectures on various subjects. There are usually four programs per exhibit and cost $5, but are free for members.
