ArtTrunks
ArtTrunks are available for loan to schools and community groups at no cost. The ArtTrunk’s subject matter is based on past exhibits here, at the Art Museum. Each ArtTrunk has materials for most grade levels, and includes: posters, books, audiocassettes, videos, and teacher’s resource guides. These resources are designed to strengthen students' appreciation of art, prepare students for a Museum visit, and to tie visual art into the teaching of various subject areas. There are currently 4 different ArtTrunks available for loan.

Ansel Adams: Masterworks

Confederate Currency: The Color of Money

John James Audubon: American Artist and Naturalist

The Last Album: Eyes from the Ashes of Auschwitz-Birkenau
