At the top of Word you have the different menu's for Home, Insert, Page
Layout, etc... How do I get the menu for Smartart Tools to list?

First you must insert and select some SmartArt. The tools tab for it
is "contextual", meaning that it displays only when the selection is
something for which it's useful.

If there is some sepcific tool or group on that tab that you want to
see at all times -- even though it will probably be disabled unless
SmartArt is selected and thus the whole tab is available -- you can
right-click the button or group and choose Add to Quick Access
Toolbar.
