LEARNING RESOURCES
Check out our art lessons and resources curated by artists and educators from programs and classes offered at Schack Art Center.
OUTREACH SUITCASES
Outreach Suitcases contain artifacts and books students and educators can handle, examine, and discuss.
Each suitcase has an Educator Resource Guide complete with relevant Washington State standards-based curriculum and activities that can be adapted to students K-8.
Schack Art Center is a Satellite Center for the Ann P. Wyckoff Education Resource Center at Seattle Art Museum. At this time the Seattle Art Museums has suspended their suitcase loan program due to Covid. However, the Schack Art Center is pleased to have a limited selection of available suitcases developed by the Schack.
