Self-guided Tour

Prefer to move at your own pace? The museum is designed for it. All galleries sit on a single continuous level with no hierarchy and no wrong place to start, so groups can wander freely and regroup easily. Free spaces like Hyde Square Courtyard, Skyline Park, and the River Window give your group room to gather, rest, and take in the views between galleries. Self-guided groups receive a map and suggested routes to help you plan your time.

Guided tour with Artmaking

Trained docents lead your group on a focused tour of the museum collection or a special exhibition, tailored to the interests and needs of your group. Choose the tour that fits best, then extend the experience with an optional hands-on studio art activity, a chance to create something of your own inspired by what you've just seen. Guided tours are the best way to experience the museum together, and art-making makes the visit one your group will remember.

Spaces to rest and re-group:

The museum is designed to give your group room to rest, refuel, and take in the city between galleries.

A Museum for Everyone

Memphis Art Museum offers fully ADA-accessible routes throughout, including one of the only accessible paths to the riverfront in downtown Memphis. All galleries sit on a single continuous level with no stairs between them, making the collection easy to navigate for groups of every mobility.

Sensory bags and wheelchairs are available at the museum, and guided tours can be adapted to your group's needs. Let us know how we can help, and we'll plan an accessible visit with you.
