Welcome to the Museum! Our new smARTguide is a great way to learn more about artists, artworks, and exhibitions in our galleries. It complements information found in wall text and also provides suggestions for looking and discussion.
As you use the smARTguide, be mindful of visitors moving around you in order to maintain social distancing. Please wear headphones; if you didn’t bring a pair, ask in the Museum Store about earbuds for sale.
When you’re finished, please take a few minutes to tell us about your experience!
