Verbal description and touch tours provide an opportunity for visitors who are blind or have low vision and their companions to experience the richness and diversity of twentieth and twenty-first century American art through vivid description and tactile opportunities. Ninety-minute tours are free-of-charge and are offered monthly on Friday mornings, beginning before the Museum opens to the general public. Please join us for a tour of the 2019 Whitney Biennial.

Space is limited, and reservations are required. Please contact accessfeedback@whitney.org or call (646) 666-5574 to learn more or register.
