Art inSight: Celebrating Over 50 Years of Touch Tours at MoMA

February 27, 2023 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

Join us for a day of events at The Museum of Modern Art to commemorate over 50 years of touch tours at MoMA! We will also be celebrating the 20th anniversary of Art inSight, MoMA’s public program for visitors who are blind or have low vision.

Bring your friends and family to explore the galleries together any time between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Discover artworks in our collection through touch, participate in guided verbal description tours, enjoy art making, and learn about MoMA’s new recorded audio descriptions.

Please note that a limited number of MoMA staff will be available as sighted guides on a first-come, first-served basis. We strongly encourage bringing guests.

This program is for visitors who are blind or have low vision and their guests. Admission is free, and preregistration is recommended.
