A New Way to Explore the Putnam
As part of the Putnam: Reimagined Capital Campaign, the Putnam Museum is proud to introduce Imagine Yourself, a museum-wide interactive experience designed to enrich the guest experience, including educational field trips to spark student engagement.
During your visit, students will have the opportunity to step into the shoes of professionals such as archaeologists, environmental scientists, and other fascinating careers. As they explore the museum’s diverse galleries, interactive kiosks will guide them through career-themed journeys, featuring engaging videos and connections to the science and stories behind each exhibit.
More than just an exhibit, Imagine Yourself is a powerful educational tool that helps students visualize their future, connect classroom learning to real-world applications, and see themselves as part of the broader world of science, history, and culture.
Whether you’re teaching STEM, social studies, or career exploration, this experience is designed to support your curriculum and inspire your students.
The most effective way to utilize this experience is with small groups—ideally, one career path (or badge) per group of 10 students and one chaperone. When you book your field trip, you’ll be able to indicate how many groups you’ll have and select which career journeys you’d like each group to explore.
