Summer Camp Visits

The Rubin Museum of Art welcomes summer camp groups on field trips!

With the largest collection of Himalayan art in the United States, a visit to the Rubin Museum of Art will be a memorable fieldtrip for your campers. Explore the art and cultures of Tibet, China, India, and beyond. The museum is conveniently located on 17th Street, near both Union Square and the High Line.

A group visit to the museum may be scheduled as a guided tour or a self-guided visit. Guided tours have the exciting option of a free pre-visit lesson (pending availability) in which a museum educator visits your group before they come to the museum, using hands-on activities to prepare your campers and counselors for their museum trip.

To schedule a visit, please download and complete the Camp Visit Request Form. Return completed forms via email to reservations@rmanyc.org.
