Whitney Signs is a free American Sign Language gallery tour with voice interpretation. Join us this month for a tour of Glenn Ligon: AMERICA at 4 pm, with a free pre-tour reception from 3–4 pm.

Glenn Ligon: AMERICA is the first comprehensive mid-career retrospective devoted to this pioneering New York–based artist. Throughout his career, Ligon (b. 1960) has pursued an incisive exploration of American history, literature, and society across a body of work that builds critically on the legacies of modern painting and more recent conceptual art.

Please note: we regret that complimentary tickets will no longer be available for ASL students. Museum staff/interpreters will not be able to sign student assignments.

Admission to tour and reception is free. Registration is required; RSVP to asl_tours@whitney.org. Tickets may be picked up in the Museum lobby.
