A field trip for the teachers: High to hold appreciation events for educators

Sometimes teachers need a field trip too. And what’s better than a trip to the museum?

Throughout the year, Atlanta’s High Museum of Art will hold a series of appreciation days for teachers — whether they work in schools, home school or are community educators.

The event is open to teachers (bring a school ID) and one guest each.

It’s a chance to see all the museum has to offer for free.

Attendees can also "preview upcoming special exhibitions while learning more about the programs and resources we offer teachers and students," according to the museum.

The next teacher appreciation event will take place from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 22. The day includes free admission, drop-in art workshops and giveaways.
