Educator Open House

Explore all of Maymont’s new educational field investigation offerings at an Educator Open House. This year, Maymont offers an enriched experience for educational field investigations to all Richmond-area teachers. Come see the new learning spaces, meet the educators, and sample the programs, hands-on experiences and interactive learning tools for environmental science, history and social studies. Interdisciplinary options are available, and all programs meet Virginia Standards of Learning and national common core requirements. 

Teachers of all grade levels from K–12 in public, private or home schools are welcome.
