Tours & Collection Visits

​​​​​
A collection visit
Collection Study Room

A visit to our Collection Study Room enables you and your students to closely examine selected artworks in person. We can guide you in the selection of works based on the area of study and provide background information during your visit. We can also educate your classes about how objects entered the collection as well as broader topics, including the economic and political aspects of collecting art. We welcome all disciplines to explore the collection with us by appointment only.

The collection website allows you to peruse a selection of the museum’s rich holdings for a better understanding of the types of works we collect and our areas of focus. This digital collection platform provides easy access to the collection for use in a classroom setting.
