Hi Sophia,
We've developed many museum programs that highlight chemistry, including Community Chemistry (hairdresser, sheriff and blood hound, mozzarella cheese maker, artist, etc) and Reaction Station

The Mystery of Matter: Search for the Elements project coordinated by Colin Wilson at the Saint Louis Science Center is dedicated to bringing chemistry activities beyond the classroom: http://mysteryofmatteroutreach.org/ and http://mystery-of-matter.blogspot.com/
Another resource for an interdisciplinary approach is Art in Chemistry, Chemistry in Art by Greenberg and Patterson.
