About

Join us and Perry Hurt, former NCMA director of conservation, for a virtual journey inspired by artworks from Seeing Red, a current installation in West Building’s Conversation Gallery. 

During this hour-long program, participants are prompted to use kit items to activate the senses of touch, taste, smell, and sound. Paired with audio description, this immersive sensory experience fosters a deep, personal connection to the featured artworks. Participants are mailed a small sensory kit free of charge; limited to one kit per household.
