Experience a museum tour like never before – or in the words of Museum Hack, experience a museum tour “for people who don’t like museums.” Led by guides who have never majored in art history, these tours offer unique perspectives on popular pieces and point out hidden gems that usually get overlooked.
Available in New York City, San Francisco, Washington D.C., Chicago and Los Angeles, Museum Hack has groups covered from coast to coast. Participating museums include the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The American Museum of Natural History, The De Young Fine Arts Museum, The National Gallery of Art, The Art Institute of Chicago, and The Getty Center.
Tours last about two hours, and will show you a side of the museum you’ve never seen before. The renegade tour guides, brimmed with larger-than-life personalities, lead high-energy tours pointing out museum un-highlights and sharing crazy true stories behind disregarded works of art. Not to tire out the Museum Hack guests, guides stop often for candy breaks or to initiate ice-breaker opportunities, keeping morale up for the entirety of the tour.
Private tours are available for groups and can be tailored to highlight certain interests or favorite types of art. They also include interactive games, fun group challenges, takeaway prizes and photos, and a wine and chocolate tasting. Team-building tours are similar but are optimized to turn co-workers into team-workers and can be customized to match the company values and industry.
