INTERACTIVE LEARNING

If the exhibit halls are at the heart of the Peoria Riverfront Museum, learning programs are its soul. Educators will fill the roles of hallway interpreters, demonstrators, actors, lecturers, presenters, greeters and other roles. Museum staff and volunteers will be involved in the delivery of educational services both on-site and in the community. Educational programs will serve school groups, continuing education programs, school outreach, professional development for educators and numerous other activities.

The museum will operate the Illinois River Learning Center, with facilities for focused and scheduled educational programs. The center will include room for three studio spaces, two Pre-K programming classrooms, a library, a school loan center, a community meeting room and a multipurpose auditorium.
