National Historic Landmark Tours
Step out of time into the fantasy architecture and beautiful gardens of Greater Orlando’s only National Historic Landmark, the Maitland Art Center. Now home to the Art & History Museums of Maitland (A&H), the Maitland Art Center was founded in the 1930s by visionary artist J. André Smith as an artists’ retreat.

On these guided walking tours, you’ll see thousands of sculptures, carvings, and murals while hearing fascinating stories about the history they represent. This tour is appropriate for all ages (but recommended for ages 13 and up).

Field Trips & Tours
Groups can visit the Art & History Museums of Maitland and explore our campus in many ways. Seasonally rotating exhibits give us the opportunity to change our programming based on teachers’ needs and relevance to your students. These are also available as virtual programs for students to experience our grounds and museums through distance learning through live videos or pre-recorded sessions.
