ZMA to Go

A 5th-grade School Outreach Program*

ZMA to Go brings the museum to you!

ZMA to Go provides hands-on learning experiences with authentic art objects from the ZMA’s education collection. Enjoy thematic, interactive presentations on a variety of topics. Each 45-minute to an hour long presentation allows participants to learn how to safely handle art, make connections with art objects, use close looking to generate questions, and participate in lively discussions.

ZMA to Go, developed for 5th-grade students, reinforces key 5th-grade Ohio learning standards and serves as a supplementary art-integrated learning experience. *While created for 5th-grade, ZMA to Go is enjoyable for all ages.
