Homeschool

The Virginia Living Museum offers a Homeschool Day once a month with discounted self-guided admission, special educational opportunities, and classroom programs. Classroom programs are recommended for ages 3-18, and museum admission is included in the program cost. There will also be some months with add-on planetarium shows, which are in addition to museum admission. There will also be many opportunities that are included with admission, such as feedings and an animal meet and greet. 

Classroom and planetarium programs offer a different theme each month. See the “Schedule of Add-ons” page for more information about feedings and free programs, and check out the other tabs for information about our classroom programs.

Heads Up!

The Virginia Living Museum will open at 11AM to the public today to allow staff to get operations up and running after extensive power loss last night.

This will NOT interfere with regular summer camp operations, camp will begin at 9AM. 

Thank you for your patience!
