Learning Labs

Enhance your students' visit to Cincinnati Museum Center with the inclusion of a Learning Lab relating to one of our exhibits. Our programs feature hands-on activities, games, dynamic group processes and cooperative learning exercises that are rooted in object-based learning and curriculum standards that will help prepare students for proficiency tests.
