We provide access to exceptional exhibitions and programs that explore and inspire contemporary thought. Our tours bring a diverse group of nearly 2,000 students annually to LCA for educational tours and onsite artmaking. Bring your students to Lubeznik Center for the Arts (LCA) for an inspirational tour of our exhibits featuring internationally known and emerging artists creating unique and exciting work.
During this untraditional school year when we cannot welcome students into our galleries, we have developed a free virtual program to bring the art to your students! Educators can choose from a series of video field trips tailored to use in-person or virtually. View the trailer below for more information, and contact education@lubeznikcenter.org to access the program.
