• Northwestern Groups:  As capacity and availability allows, Northwestern classes and campus groups may request a focused talk on a selection of works from a Northwestern undergraduate in the Block Museum Student Associates. The majority of our talks are offered by our students. We require a 3-week notice for scheduling talks.
• Public Groups are welcome to explore the exhibition on their own, and to utilize all exhibition resources to support their visit.

 

The Block specializes in the presentation of exhibitions and public programs that resonate with contemporary life, and with issues and conversations relevant to young adult and adult visitors.  The Block's tours and educational offerings are best tailored to high school, college age, and adult audiences from across the Chicago region.  We are fortunate to be connected to civic museums and arts organizations in Chicago and Evanston best positioned to serving needs of K-8 education and would be happy to make referrals to museum and arts resources for younger groups.
