Santa Barbara Museum of Art Tour and Art Workshop- Heartland Charter School

Registration window March 17, 10:00 a.m. - March 24, 7:00 p.m.

Please join us for a tour of the beautiful Santa Barbara Museum of Art. This is a two-part field trip.

The first part will immerse your students in art with a docent-led tour of SBMA’s galleries. In this 45-minute guided tour, students engage in active viewing and dynamic discussions that incorporate higher-level thinking skills, such as comparing and contrasting, analyzing and evaluating, and connecting art to everyday life.

The second part will be making art in the Art Learning Lab downstairs. This reinforces students' recall, helps them relate to what they saw, and provides a creative opportunity for self-expression. Students enjoy a 30-minute hands-on art project, then a tour of the galleries with a Museum docent to discuss the art on view.

This field trip is for 2nd-8th-grade students; no siblings are permitted.

Please read our refund policy!

Refunds will not be given for any reason. Help us offer field trips and events to as many students as possible by placing orders only for those you are committed to attending. As a courtesy, if you are sick or unable to attend a field trip, please get in touch with the teacher who planned the event and let them know so they do not have to wait at the venue for you. * Families who are no-shows may lose access to future field trips.*

May I pay using my student's planning amount? Yes! You can pay for your student's ticket and one chaperone ticket with your student's planning amount. Reminder: Only one chaperone ticket per family may be purchased using planning amounts. There are two steps to purchase tickets for field trips with your student's planning amount.

Step 1. Reserve your ticket on Ticketbud. Please select the "Student ticket paid with planning amounts through Procurify" and or "Chaperone ticket paid with planning amounts through Procurify" ticket options on Ticketbud. Complete the checkout process on Ticketbud. You will receive an email confirmation from Ticketbud once your order is complete. (If you do not receive an email, please check your Spam folder.) This is the first step in reserving your tickets. Immediately after you receive confirmation from Ticketbud, proceed to step 2.

Step 2. Place an order for your tickets in Procurify. Search the name of this field trip in the Procurify catalog and complete your order just like you would for any other order. Your spot on this field trip will not be confirmed until you have placed your order in Procurify. Failure to place an order in Procurify within three days will result in removal from the attendee list and manual deduction of your funds.

What are the check-in procedures? We will meet on the front steps off of State St. for an orientation and then head inside. The teacher will be wearing Heartland clothing!

Does this trip have any grade or age restrictions? Students must be in 2nd-8th grade to attend. Only one chaperone per family is allowed. If you purchase a ticket for a student who is ot in 2-8th grade or a second chaperone ticket, you will not be given a refund.
