Guided Group Tours
We can accommodate a  group size of up to 60 guests per reservation and require that at least one chaperone be a part of each tour party if your group has K-12-aged students. If your group is larger than 20 people, we will separate your group up into smaller rotating groups with  20 guests per tour group.
Self-Guided Groups
We strongly recommend a guided experience for all groups. However, if your group of 10 or more declines a guided tour, you will qualify for the Self-Guided Group rate.

Artistic Extensions for College/University and Adult Group Rates

In addition to group tours, a program add-on can accompany your group tour experience. Program add-ons are supplements to a general exhibit tour experience and are great ways to connect with the CAM’s collection and temporary exhibits.  Each extension program extends your visit and is subject to availability at the requested time. 

Program extensions are as follows:
