School Field Trips
Need a change in scenery? Book a field trip at the Albany Regional Museum and have your students discover Albany’s history! Our interactive exhibit space is sure to create a fun and educational experience for students, teachers, and chaperones alike.
Due to concepts addressed in our exhibits, we limit our tours to groups in the 3rd grade and up. 1st and 2nd grade classes are encouraged to reserve our traveling trunks that target current state curriculum.
Guided Tour Field Trip
Our guided field trips are designed to cover topics relevant to current state curriculum and may not include every exhibit, however, one-time family passes are provided to every student to make sure they are able to return at a later date with their family to enjoy all of our exhibits and Kids Corner. A hands-on activity is included in our guided tour to help students explore how artifacts can answer questions about our past.
