It is because of teachers that many children take a first step in a lifelong enjoyment of art — and the Nelson-Atkins is devoted to assisting educators in this endeavor.
We support youth-serving professionals with a full range of development opportunities, curriculum consultations and a library of circulating materials — all in the Educator Resource Center. For students, there are tours and art-making workshops that extend the classroom experience to the place where art thrives in our city—The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art.
School and Youth Serving Organizations is made possible in part by support from the Oppenstein Brothers Foundation.
