The State Historical Society of North Dakota has developed a series of traveling exhibits that are available for circulation to libraries, schools, museums, and other nonprofit educational institutions for no rental fee. Host institutions pay only the shipping charges and must meet certain requirements for exhibition areas and security. Bookings are for six-week periods, and must conform to the Society's designated scheduling intervals. The Museum and Education Division staff offers, on a limited basis, in-service workshops designed to help the classroom teacher explore and examine new techniques in utilizing the State Historical Society's gallery exhibits and SEND program trunks as an extension of the classroom learning experience. Reproduction and authentic artifacts, historic photographs, and primary documents are used to illustrate features of the surrounding exhibit.
Handouts are available for students.
Reservations are required at least two weeks in advance. May is our busiest month, so we urge you to consider scheduling your visits throughout the school year. One chaperone per 10 students is highly recommended. Programs Programs are subject to change. Call for current program schedule.
