Mondays 12pm

An older couple sits at a modest table with a small plate in front of each and other empty dishes nearby. Visible behind them but half hidden by the man’s head, a country style plaque reads “the lord is my shepherd.”

Floor 7

Slow down and discover how much there is to see when we take the time to look closely at highlights from The Whitney’s Collection: Selections from 1900 to 1965. Guided by a Museum docent, participants are encouraged to think through and discuss works together. Each forty-five minute session focuses on a single work of art or explores a connection between two works. 

Times and locations are subject to change or cancellation. Please confirm daily tour times on our calendar.
