The Education Department of the museum is available for visitors of all ages to offer experiences that satisfy a variety of interests and value each visitor as an individual. The philosophy of the department puts the visitor, child or adult, at the center of each learning experience. The approach to the works of art is always interactive, playful, and engaging. It plays upon the emotions because an encounter with the museum leaves a profound mark in the memory of each of us. The activities on Marino Marini are designed thematically to focus on many aspects of his creative artistry.
For the 2018/19 scholastic year the available themes are:
Aloud is a journey that favors narration as a way to establish contact with the art. The path through the museum analyzes a few of the works by Marino Marini, and then focuses on one, inventing a story, nursery rhyme, or poem around it.
The project is included in the Chiavi della città of the City of Florence:

Emotive colors is a path that focuses on color. Color provokes emotions, transmits sensations and communicates moods; color witnesses changes and expresses the meaning of transformation. In a museum dedicated to modern and contemporary art, proposing to children and young people an activity that reflects on creative expressiveness involves them in experiments of corporeal, graphic and pictorial gestures to acquire a deep and stimulating meaning.

Connecting with Art by Touch (Con-Tatto Arte) is a journey focused on multi-sensoriality. At the Museo Marino Marini some sculptures are able to be explored by touch, and during this visit, the sense of touch is preferred to understand the work of art and its materiality.

The ABC’s of Art – the collage is dedicated to an avant-garde technique adopted during the beginning of the twentieth century for the creation of works of art, that piques interest also in today’s artists.
