COLLEGE CLASSES AND CURRICULUM
The Santa Rosa Junior College Museum houses collections of ethnographic art from all over the world. Permanent exhibits include the arts of California Indians, Pacific Northwest Coast, Plains and Plateau, and the Southwest. The museum is a primary resource for multicultural studies in the SRJC curriculum, and there are a number of rotating and temporary exhibits that change on a regular basis to serve the needs of college classes. The exhibits and collections serve as a laboratory for anthropology and Native American studies and provide study materials for other Ethnic Studies and American Cultures courses. Museum staff is available to consult with instructors who wish to plan museum‐based assignments, with the possibility of specialized exhibits created for the curriculum needs of individual instructors.
SRJC classes can book special visits for any times that are available. Whole class visits must be booked in advance to assure that no other events are scheduled during your visit. Masks and self-symptom checks are encouraged to help prevent virus spread.
