The University Museum Education Department offers Traveling Trunks as an outreach program. Each Trunk contains materials for an educational presentation that can be conducted by one of our Museum Educators or checked out on loan from the museum. In the trunks you will find all of the reading materials needed for an exciting classroom presentation, artifacts on the subject, and all of the supplies needed for your classes’ art project.
To reserve a Traveling Trunk or to request a presentation please contact
Sarah Story at 662915-7205 or email sestory@olemiss.edu.
