Adult Groups
The Museum's guided and facilitated tour options enable adult groups to
explore the Museum's permanent collection while drawing upon the extensive
experiences of our staff of Gallery Educators or following along with the
Museum's Audio Tour, narrated by Meryl Streep and Itzhak Perlman.
Hundreds of groups from across the nation have visited the Museum, and
their reaction to the exhibition has been both positive and powerful.
A group visit offers a special opportunity to share this very meaningful
museum experience with family, friends, and colleagues.

Self-guided visits may be reserved at any time during regular Museum hours.
After picking up your reserved tickets at out Visitor Center, your group
will be greeting by one of our Gallery Educators. You may then explore
the galleries at your own pace, using our displays and video testimony
to enrich your experience.

collection in depth, this narrative will expand your knowledge of the
history we examine and the artifacts we exhibit. (Time Out New York calls
our Audio Tour the "Cool Thing to Do" in New York City.)

the Museum's collections. Thematic tours are available based upon your
group's particular interests.
