As an Independence Seaport Museum Teacher Member, you become part of a community of educators dedicated to making the most of the Museum as a learning tool. The Seaport has been helping educators present lessons about a wide range of maritime topics since 1960, and we look forward to having you on board.
As a Teacher Member, you'll receive the following benefits:
- Discounted admissions to programs and special events
- Invitations to Act 48 Teacher Workshop events
- Subscription to E-news with the latest events and special program news
- Four complimentary Museum passes
- Subscription to the Museum's newsletter, Masthead
From time to time the Museum will request input from Teacher Members on new educational
programs and exhibits. One of our goals is to provide tools and programming
that is useful to you, the teacher, in your efforts to encourage curiosity
and learning in your students. Your experience and expertise will help the Museum
craft the kinds of lessons your students need. Are any of the Pennsylvania
Academic Standards difficult to meet through classroom instruction? Would some
be more effectively met through lessons based in the Museum or on the Cruiser Olympia or Submarine Becuna? Teacher Members will help the Seaport identify the areas of greatest need and
formulate programs to fill these needs.
As a Teacher Member, you'll be eligible to participate in Museum Members-Only
events, including guest lectures, behind-the-scenes tours, and exhibit openings.
