Adult and Community Learning

Art can open a conversation, bring back a memory or offer a new way to spend time with other people. 

OUR adult and community programs create opportunities to keep learning, making and connecting throughout life.

Inspired Aging

Inspired Aging is a free, beginner-friendly studio course for adults ages 55 and older who want to explore art in a social setting. A  teaching artist leads participants through multiple sessions inspired by MAM’s collection and current exhibitions.

Docent Program

Volunteer docents lead gallery experiences for children and adults. MAM provides in-depth training in the collection, art history and touring techniques. No prior museum experience or art background is required.
