The Bob Dylan Center is committed to inspiring students of all ages to express their creativity through music and the arts. A field trip here gives students a chance to step inside one of the most significant cultural collections in the world, explore Bob Dylan's legacy and his impact on popular culture, and gain real insight into the creative process.
By connecting students with Dylan's work — his writing, his music, and the way he reinvented himself again and again — we hope to help them find and develop their own unique voices, along with a deeper appreciation for music and the arts. Field trips are guided by our education team and shaped around your goals, so whether your class is studying American history, literature, songwriting, or social change, the visit connects to what they're already learning.
Best of all, field trips to the Bob Dylan Center are completely free.
See what a day at the Bob Dylan Center looks like for a class — from the archive wall to the immersive film experience — and how students connect Dylan's story to their own.
