Virtual Mondays from the Museum offer an opportunity to remotely engage with the Chrysler Museum’s collection of artwork in thought-provoking and accessible ways. Tours cover a select group of works that encourage the understanding of multiple cultures, histories, and art forms. Groups, especially those particularly at high risk for Covid-19, are encouraged to sign up.
Virtual tours are 30-45 minutes in length and will occur via Zoom. To schedule, choose from one of our ten themes below and contact Ruth Sanchez at rsanchez@chrysler.org or (757) 333-6269. Once your group is booked, the Museum will schedule a docent and arrange the Zoom meeting.
