MAAIC Hands on Education Outreach Program
The Mid-America All-Indian offers our exciting Hands on Education program to school and educational groups throughout the city of Wichita and surrounding areas. For groups of 10 or more who are unable to make the trip to our museum and cultural center we will gladly bring the experience to you. Our Education Coordinator will give an interactive lesson using our hands on collection and descriptive manual to demonstrate how items transform from their natural state into everyday tools, clothing, musical instruments, and accessories. This program allows students to get a firsthand look into American Indian life through experiencing the large variety of items we have in our hands on collection, including: skins, bones, jewelry, games, pottery, instruments, tools, corn grinding, and clothing.
