Tours & Virtual Visits
Enjoy an interactive tour of the Baltimore Museum of Art led by a BMA educator. Each virtual and on-site tour will highlight exciting works from across the Museum. All tours include art from around the world made by artists who are Black, Indigenous, people of color, women, or from other historically underrepresented groups.
All tours for students are free.
If your school budget allows, please consider making a suggested donation of $2 per student. All donations support the educational mission of the BMA.

Artists Play
Explore how artists experiment with materials and techniques to make work that hangs on the wall, moves on the floor, or surrounds us!
Wild Nature
Explore the natural world through the eyes of artists. Examine the outdoors close up or capture it from far away and make connections to your own environment.
Portraits
Use visual clues and your imaginations to explore what artworks tell us about people and personalities.
Artful Stories
Investigate how artists tell tales without words as we use detective skills to figure out settings, characters, and plots in their stories.
Moods and Feelings
Build empathy as we learn how artists use color and other techniques to create moods and convey feelings in artworks.
Identity
Investigate how artists express the complexity of people—who they are, how they have been seen, and how they wish to be known.
Power
How does art express power? Whether examining religious and ritual objects, art that protests and critiques, or depictions of leaders, we will analyze how power is amplified by art.
Care and Community
How do we care for ourselves, each other, and our communities? Explore how artists from different time periods and places have answered these questions.
