Portrait Description Tour of America’s Presidents
A multisensory gallery talk brings iconic presidential portraits to life through descriptive, evocative language, designed primarily for visitors who are blind or have low vision and their sighted companions. Over 60 minutes, you'll encounter works like Gilbert Stuart's famous "Lansdowne" portrait of George Washington and explore 3D tactile reproductions of the historic Abraham Lincoln life masks. The program offers a different way to experience the museum's popular America's Presidents gallery, engaging multiple senses rather than sight alone.
