Floor 7

Slow down and discover how much there is to see when we take the time to look closely at selections from the Whitney’s collection. Guided jointly by a teen Youth Insights Leader and a Museum docent, participants are encouraged to think through and discuss works together. Each forty-minute session focuses on a single work of art or explores a connection between two works.
