Adults and College Students
 |
The Autry National Center offers a wide array of programming and exhibitions to educate and enrich the general public. The Autry Institute gives the general public an opportunity to engage with historians, anthropologists, authors of fiction, and many other scholars and creative artists in a nurturing and supportive environment. Our docent-led tours of the museum galleries help visitors learn important lessons about the historical and contemporary West.
Also, we offer a docent-training program annually in which adults can learn about the history of the West and then help teach the region’s diverse history to students and visitors of all ages!
