Art InSight is for people who are blind or low vision and who enjoy learning about art.

We use various senses and strategies to examine works in the Gallery collection. Each visit includes exploring one or two works through touch, visual descriptions, and more. Group size is limited in order to allow all participants to share ideas, stories, experiences and questions.

If you are coming to the Gallery for Art InSight, please check in at the Tour Group Lobby (behind the Boutique) on your registered date.

Each Art InSight program lasts 90 minutes.
