Groups & Field Trips

GROUPS & FIELD TRIPS

The IMAX® Theater in the Indiana State Museum is dedicated to providing a wide range of educational large-format films for class field trips. Whether your group is studying animals, nature, art or science, let us help educate and entertain your class. Our educational group pricing makes the IMAX Theater an affordable class outing.

Our films are designed to educate and enlighten as much as they are to entertain. We offer educators a powerful teaching tool that is easily integrated into existing curriculum. We provide students with unique and exciting opportunities to explore new worlds and new ideas. In fact, these films are so inspiring that scientists and explorers have cited them for influencing their career choice. As NASA astronaut, Susan Helms, said of her decision to become an astronaut: "I first thought about it as an option for me in my 20s after seeing the IMAX movie, The Dream Is Alive."

Take your students on a journey full of surprise and delight. Together they can explore the environment, natural history and many wonders that lie beneath the ocean and so much more. IMAX films put them in the center of spirited adventure and hypnotic events in a way no other film presentation can.
