The GVSU Art Museum can integrate artwork into your classroom discussions, assignments, projects, and more. Check out our calendar to see if one of our already planned events meets a goal for your students, or reach out to us directly to plan something tailored to your needs. We can bring artwork to your classroom; you can visit our art storage or office spaces, or book a tour of an exhibition or space on campus. 

The GVSU Art Museum team can work with faculty one-on-one to create lesson plans or assignments. Whether you are looking for a behind-the-scenes experience, something hands-on, a creative usage of art in your classroom, or a more traditional assignment, we are here to assist you.

Studies show that information that is introduced or reinforced with visuals is more effective than reading or hearing alone. Use work from the GVSU Art Collection to reinforce your classroom content. Whether this is through the emotional response of a lonely polar bear on a melting iceberg, a work that criticizes the usage of fossil fuels, a scientific photograph of the Earth, a protest poster urging us to protect water, or a hopeful work that encourages us to plant seeds, the Collection has a work that will enhance your curriculum.
