Our educator-led tour of the Met for kids tour is a wonderful adventure into the ways stories can be told through art. Together, by exploring objects from collections across the museum, such as ancient Greek sculpture, Renaissance altarpieces, Medieval armor, American portraiture, or Impressionist landscapes, we will examine how artists communicate narrative throughout history in a variety of media. We’ll learn to read these narratives and discover what they can tell us about the time, place, and people connected with each work. 

As this is a private walk, the material will be tailored to the level and interests of the youngest participants. For children 12 and under your guide will engage them to find elements in paintings, or a drawing exploration to keep the children interacting while learning. For middle schoolers, the emphasis is placed on questioning the works of art and our assumptions about them. In each case, we ask that you tell us about your children's current studies and provide any comments about their learning styles you can.

We make a special group reservation for our visit to the museum, which allows you to skip the long entry lines to the museum. These reservation tickets will be added to your cart when you check out. Your guide will have your entry buttons with him/her on the day of the walk. However, due to enhanced COVID-19 safety precautions at this venue, there will be a mandatory security line that we must wait in together. 

Please note that museum memberships cannot substitute for the group reservation required by the museum. All reservation ticket sales are final and cannot be refunded.
