The Historic New Orleans Collection’s educational outreach program brings history to life for the thousands of K–12, undergraduate, and graduate students throughout the region. The program offers direct presentations in the classroom, community programs, field trips to THNOC’s changing exhibitions and to the Louisiana History Galleries, and professional training workshops for teachers. To schedule a field trip, please fill in the online form. We will not accomodate unscheduled field trips.
During this week-long camp, participants will go behind the scenes and get hands-on experience in curating an exhibition. THNOC staff will lead campers through the process of crafting a topic, conducting research and writing interpretive text, and designing an exhibition.
The Historic New Orleans Collection welcomes school children of all ages free of charge, but reservations are required for groups of any size. Field trip requests can be made here. We will not accomodate unscheduled field trips.
THNOC offers educator workshops, webinars, and other programs for educators and students.
