Educator Opportunities

We offer adult/teen/children’s programs throughout the year. If you’re interested in teaching a class or workshop, contact the education coordinator at [email protected] and let’s begin the conversation about making that happen!

Educational Opportunity
Bring Your Students to Winterfair … Free Admission!

Columbus Winterfair is a fine art and craft fair featuring the works of nearly 400 artists from across the country. Free admission for school groups will be offered on the first day of the fair, Friday 10 am–7 pm. Schedule your group by emailing the education coordinator at [email protected]. Deadline for registering a tour is November 21; please leave the following information when registering: 1)-Teacher Name, 2)-School, 3)-Contact Phone #, 4)-Your first choice of arrival time, starting at 10am (times assigned on a first-come, first-serve basis), 5)-Number of students and number buses, and 6)-number of teachers/chaperones.

Many artists demonstrate their craft during fair hours. We encourage your students to talk with these and other artists to get the most out of their visit. Your students will also be able to participate in hands-on art-making activities.

 Student Visits to the Ohio Craft Museum

Educators are invited to bring students of all ages to the Ohio Craft Museum for gallery tours, hands-on workshops and more. Depending on the program, the cost varies from completely free to $5–$10 per student. Please call 614-486-4402 or email [email protected] to receive more information. Workshop requests must be made at least six weeks in advance. Individualized workshops are not offered during the summer months.

Teach at the Museum

Artists and Educators! Share your artistic knowledge with our Young Masters and teens. During the summer, the Ohio Craft Museum offers the opportunity for young people to explore the arts through our Young Masters Camp (grades 1–6) and Teen Summer Workshops (grades 6–12). Teaching proposals are accepted starting in October: if you’re interested in proposing a class(es) for teen workshops, click here, and submit a proposal by December 31. If you’re interested in teaching Young Masters Camp or would like more information, email: [email protected] or call 614-486-4402.
