I have taken students to the Asia Pacific Museum in Pasadena. The highlight of the tour was a cultural art class my students took from a professional Chinese calligrapher. My students learned how to write in Chinese characters and were able to take their projects with them. They loved the calligraphy class! My students talked about this field-trip for the rest of the year!
When you call for a tour for your students, you have the option of signing your class up for a cultural art class. There are a variety of choices: calligraphy, wood blocking, etc. The time spent at the Asia Pacific Museum will only take half a day.
