Springfield Museums

The Springfield Museums have 160 years of education experience and a proven track-record of keeping our programing relevant, exciting, experiential, and transformative.

The Springfield Museums strive to meet every learner where they are to help them understand and then expand their understanding. We utilize hands-on, immersive, fun activities that also convey important learning.

The education program at the Springfield Museums has been providing educational and cultural enrichment for people of all ages since 1918. The program began with studio art instruction and has expanded to include the areas of science, art history, creative writing, genealogy and history. The programs offered represent the rich and diverse resources and collections at the Museums and are led by dedicated staff and faculty. The Museums are a place to learn, explore and let your imagination join your creative energies!

THE SPRINGFIELD MUSEUMS are located on the Quadrangle at 21 Edwards Street in the heart of downtown Springfield, Massachusetts. The nationally accredited and Smithsonian-affiliated consortium of museums includes the Springfield Science Museum, the Michele and Donald D’Amour Museum of Fine Arts, the Lyman and Merrie Wood Museum of Springfield History, the George Walter Vincent Smith Art Museum, the Dr. Seuss National Memorial Sculpture Garden, and the Amazing World of Dr. Seuss Museum, the first and only museum dedicated to the beloved children’s book author and Springfield native.
