Adult and community groups
As part of our commitment to enrich the lives of our communities, guided and self-guided tours for youth and adult community groups are available.
Guided tours
Guided tours include multiple artwork stops, during which groups will have the choice of four three styles: general exhibition exploration (discussion based), an exhibition deep dive (lecture based), or a fun experience in the exhibition (discussion and activity based). Tours are approximately 50 minutes long. Guided tours can be scheduled for a maximum group size of sixty-five people Tuesday through Friday, between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. must be scheduled at least four weeks in advance.
Guided tours for youth groups 6 to 9 years old require one chaperone for every five youth. Guided tours for youth groups 10 to 17 years old require one chaperone for every 10 youth.
- Cost per general guided tour: $100 flat fee for a maximum group size of sixty-five people.
