planning a visit - FAQs

Edgerton Outreach is able to book ONE lesson for ONE group per day; simultaneous sessions are not possible. Class sizes can range from 12-24 students. For larger groups, please contact Amy for options.

The Outreach Program is available for GROUP BOOKINGS only. Individuals may not sign up for previously arranged classes.

Check our on-line calendar for available dates ("blank" spaces are "available").

Select a lesson from the options to the left, but please check the minimum age to be certain that the lesson is appropriate for your group. (Please note - the content of classes does not change from year to year. If a group of students has already gone through a lesson, we regret that we can not offer that same lesson to those students a second time.)

Plan on a three-hour visit, as most activities are designed for a three-hour time block, including breaks for brown bag snack/lunch, eaten in our classroom space. Students with allergies should be aware that a variety of foods are brought into the classroom each and every day.

Our lessons are available without a fee, but parking in one of MIT's parking lots has a per vehicle cost of $20. (Parking MUST be pre-arranged, more information from the Directions link.)
