EDUCATION PROGRAM
At the Hellenic Museum we believe in lifelong learning. Our Education Program is designed to engage and inspire learners of all ages through on-site experiences and digital resources.
Our on-site programs are defined by an Object-Based Learning (OBL) approach, connecting students with the Hellenic Museum's artefacts to develop critical historical skills, make inspiring personal investigations, unpack historical and archaeological forms of inquiry, and lift history off the page.
STUDENT WORKSHOPS
When students take part in Hellenic Museum workshops, they don't just visit a museum or classroom. They enter a new world of thinking and problem solving where they can touch, wonder, innovate and explore.
Our workshops blend traditional classroom methods with exhibition immersion, virtual reality, artefacts and hands-on activities for holistic learning, across an array of subject areas and eras in Hellenic history.
