Let’s add a touch of culture to our lives! The Joslyn Art Museum presents a tactile art experience designed for those with vision loss. It’s a multi-sensory exploration of some of the world’s most famous works of art. The installation represents seven key artistic movements: the Renaissance, the Baroque, Neoclassicism, Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, Art Nouveau, and Expressionism. Custom kinesthetic displays with tactile panels and touch-activated audio make visual knowledge accessible.

Everything is more fun with friends, so we will meet as a group to check it out and grab a bite to eat at the cafe afterward. The exhibit is free, and you are welcome to check out other parts of the museum afterward. You will need to cover your own drinks, snacks, or lunch at the cafe, though. All ages are welcome, as are friends and family members.
