Although we may be physically distancing, the Intrepid Museum is open virtually for exploration and conversation! Visitors who are blind or have low vision are invited for virtual verbal description tours of the Intrepid Museum’s historic spaces, collection and exhibitions. These programs take place quarterly and are free with advance registration.
These educator-led tours are conducted remotely over Zoom with verbal description and conversation. Programs are accessible by web link and by call-in phone number, depending on your preference. Each program listed below will be offered twice. RSVP for one option. Please email access@intrepidmuseum.org to register.
