SAM HOMESCHOOL DAYS
DECEMBER 2025
PRINTMAKING
If you are a homeschooled student in the Great Lakes Bay Region, join us for an afternoon at the museum. The K-12 activities are 1-2 hours long, which includes a tour and art project.  They all align with Visual Arts state standards and are free for everyone.

Due to capacity, we will cap each session at 15 students. Registration is required. You will receive a packet with what to expect a few days prior to the field trip. Registration will close 24 hours before each session, or until they fill up. There is space on the form if you are planning on signing up for more than one child.

A parent or guardian must accompany their student on the field trip, please do not drop off your child. You are welcome to join the field trip activities or hang out in a designated area with other parents/guardians.

We do have an elevator for a stroller, if you need to bring young children with you. However, having carrying your small child around the museum is easier.
