School Group Education Programs

Old Westbury Gardens offers a wide variety of guided programs designed for K-12 students and educators to explore Westbury House and Gardens.

Guided hands-on tours are designed in conjunction with NYS Curriculum Standards and allow the property to act as an extension of a teacher's classroom to create concrete counterparts to traditional school lessons in Natural Science, Art, Sopcial Science, English and History.
