Education
Spotlight On...
Fridays, 11 am
Spotlight tours offer an opportunity to slow down and look closely at select highlights from the Whitney Museum's collection. Guided by a Museum docent, participants are encouraged to study and discuss works together. Each forty-five-minute session explores a single artwork or a connection between two artworks.
