education Overview
 

The Des Moines Art Center is dedicated to fostering lifelong learning in the community through educational programs that respond to the needs and interests of our audience. Our goal is to
help all museum visitors make sense of art and find inspiring connections between art and life.
The Education Department organizes a wide range of programs and materials for diverse audiences, many of which seek to expand upon our permanent collections and special exhibitions. Studio classes are available in many art disciplines for people of all ages at
any level of skill. Guided tours are available at the Art Center and Pappajohn Sculpture Park.
