Make Portland Your Destination for School Field Trips in the Arts, Culture, and Humanities
In this time of tight or non-existent budgets for field trips and arts experiences, Portland Ovations has found a silver lining.
With funding from the Sam L. Cohen Foundation, we are able to assist some schools in coming to Portland by bus in order to make efficient, economical, and environmentally friendly use of time spent outside the classroom on field trips. What a great way to extend learning by attending a Portland Ovations school-time or evening performance and combining it with a visit to another arts, cultural, or historical organization in Portland. Teachers or groups can extend learning opportunities by visiting one of our collaborating organizations: Children’s Museum and Theatre of Maine, Maine Historical Society, Portland Museum of Art, Portland Harbor Museum, Portland Public Library, or the Museum of African Culture.
