The Georgian National Museum was the first Georgian museum to offer educational programmes for children, creating the Department of Educational Programmes in 2005.
These programmes are aimed at schools pupils and focus on the Museum collections.
The Department maintains close working ties with teachers and educational experts. It loans out materials to prepare for Museum visits and organises special educational tours, which permit teachers to guide their own groups around the Museum. The Department also has the capacity to arrange for teachers to borrow related publications and museum kits.
Additionally, visitors from schools and educational authorities are invited to familiarise themselves with the Georgian National Museum’s permanent and temporary exhibitions on their own, using supervisory material provided by the Department of Educational Programmes.
The Department publishes books and games, and organises special workshops for children visiting independently and not as part of a group.
