Education

Programs Department

The Blackhawk Museum Programs Department provides a variety of services for our visitors and members alike. Training Docents, booking lecturers, planning family programs, and coordinating with schools, tour groups and car clubs, the Programs Department makes every visitors experience enjoyable, interesting and educational.

The Children's Education & Transportation Fund, a reimbursement bus fund established by the Blackhawk Museum Guild, provides school groups from around the Bay Area funding for the transporation costs to the Museum. Over 145,000 students have attended the Museum in the last 18 years, and with free programs that are targeted at every age group, there will be many more in the coming years.

Docents

Our many docents are a very important part of our public education program. Docents complete a rigorous but very enjoyable and interesting training program to be able to tour school groups, car clubs and other visitors.

School Tours

“The Tour” offers the unique opportunity for students of all ages to appreciate the historical, social and artistic impact of the automobile during the last 100 years, plus a visit to our changing exhibitions — while supporting the California State Content Standards in History, English/Language Arts, and Fine Arts. more>>
