Abstract	These five study guides present ideas for activities based on museum exhibition themes. The learning activities are designed for coordination with museum visits, but may be adapted for independent use. Activities appropriate for preschool and elementary levels are indicated. Exhibition themes include: (1) "Space Exploration," which explores the built environment and building's space; (2) "Warhol's Myth," which considers how American media myths reveal shared beliefs and experiences; (3) "Puppets," which introduces the art of Mister Rogers, Jim Henson, and other puppet masters; (4) "Riverscape," which re-enacts the hustle and bustle of a Pittsburgh workday of the past, for instance, children steer a boat down a theater-like set, loading fruits and vegetables, and selling them in a storefront; and (5) "Looking at You: Urban X-Ray/Self-Portrait/Stuffee/Heart Works" which views portraits from inside and outside the body and instructs in the care and feeding of the body. The guides include background information, instructions, suggested projects, worksheets, reproducibles, and when appropriate, musical scores, poetry, and illustrations. (MM)
