The Asian Art Museum is an accessible and inspiring environment for educators and students to discover the richness of Asian art and culture. Through a diverse selection of education programs, students can learn about Asian art and the cultural context in which it was created. Each school program is customized to enhance the California History, Social Science, and Visual Arts content standards. K-12 school programs are lead by the volunteer docents and storytellers and are offered free of charge (reservations are required)

In addition to school programs, the education department offers a number of learning opportunities for the educational community. Educator events are offered throughout the year on a variety of topics while educational resources can be borrowed or purchased through the education department.
