Art Access

The Art Access Program, generously supported by the Kendeda Fund and many individual donors, is designed to remove the economic barriers that typically prevent Title I school students from visiting the High Museum of Art. Art Access provides Georgia students a high-quality, dynamic learning experience that supports state standards.

This all-inclusive field-trip program provides:

  • Free admission for all students and required chaperones
  • Transportation reimbursement when received within 90 days after the field trip, if applicable
  • Online teacher resources for classroom learning before and after a visit to the Museum
  • “Welcome Back” cards for all participating students, allowing each child to return to the Museum with his or her family one time free of charge

The Art Access Program application will open in fall 2021. We look forward to welcoming back our students for spring 2022 visits! Please check back for more updates.

Questions? Please contact 404-733-4476 or hmaartaccess@high.org.
