School Tours
The Hawai‘i State Art Museum offers docent-led school tours. HiSAM can hold a maximum of 40 students per visit. Groups of over 20 students will be split into smaller groups. Teachers are required to bring at least one chaperone for every 10 students, in addition to the teacher(s).
We require a minimum of four weeks notice before your scheduled tour. Self-guided tours are also available with two weeks advance notice.
Pre-visit Information Packets are available for teachers interested in bringing their students to HiSAM.
To reserve a docent-led school tour, a self-guided tour, or Teacher Information Packets, please contact Susan Hogan, Museum Educator, at (808) 586-9958, or via email at susan.m.hogan@hawaii.gov.
