California Museum gallery guides are the face of our Museum. Our guides introduce the museum's exhibits to both students and adults and provide tours for diverse audiences. School groups visiting the museum receive curriculum structured tours based on their grade level and guided tours are presented to private groups by reservation. Gallery guides also assist groups with activity sheets, answer questions and interpret our exhibits.
