Visit Exhibitions with Your Class
We facilitate free field trips to exhibitions at the main branch, the Stephen A. Schwarzman Building.

Check out information about the permanent exhibition, The Polonsky Exhibition of the Library's Treasures  and the current rotating exhibition, Awe of the Arctic: A Visual History.

We estimate this form takes 5 minutes to complete. There will be a second set of questions to help us plan your trip, once we confirm the group size, date, and time of your visit.

At this time, we require at least 2 weeks notice for an upcoming visit.

If you have any questions while filling out this registration form, please email educators@nypl.org.
