Educator Programing

Through the years HCCC has built a wealth of resources and designed several programs to support learning through craft. If you are an educator, we invite you to browse through our lesson plans and virtual learning page for ideas you can instruct on your own. We also hope you will bring your classes for a tour, invite us to your school, or sign up a group of teachers for one of our professional development sessions.

Group Tours & Workshops

HCCC’s group tours and workshops can be reserved together or separately and designed to support the youngest creatives, adult novices, and masters of craft. We host school groups and private sessions, and strive to accommodate a range of learning differences and accessibility needs. Read below to learn more and contact us to schedule your visit with our expert education team.
