TOUR INFO
The Looking to See outreach program was started in October 2010 to provide a structured guided tour program and educational outreach to the general public with a focus on our area's K-12 students, after-school programs and youth. The Halsey is dedicated to increasing accessibility and community engagement especially for youth and K-12 students. The free tours are led by knowledgeable and experienced guides and can be adapted to different time lengths, group sizes, and age groups. Lessons within the galleries can be easily customized to follow specific classroom course objectives as the Looking to See tour guides are well versed in exhibition content and eager to collaborate with educators. The program is open to elementary, middle, and high schools, church groups and other interested organizations. In addition to the tours being free, bus parking has been arranged with the Charleston Museum at no charge. For more information and scheduling please contact the Education & Outreach Coordinator, Lizz Biswell, or by calling 843-953-HICA(4422).
