School Programs and Tours 2021–2022

Explore art, history, and natural science with the Oakland Museum of California through our virtual field trips and self-guided visits to the Museum that let you explore the many stories of California and its people. Learn about the natural, artistic, and social forces that affect the state and investigate your own role in both its history and its future through discussion, storytelling, and inquiry.

OMCA is excited to offer free virtual field trips for the 2021–22 school year. Spring 2022 virtual field trips are available beginning March 1 unless otherwise noted. We are currently scheduling through June 3, 2022.

Stay up-to-date through our teacher mailing list.
