Meet Your Museum Tour
Get acquainted with the Raclin Murphy Museum of Art on a guided visit led by a student gallery teacher or a member of the museum staff. The tour moves through distinctive areas to spotlight the building’s architecture and pauses to see notable works from the collection. The route covers all gallery levels. Meet at the Welcome Desk. All are welcome, and no registration is required. The group will keep moving between spaces, and gallery stools are available upon request.
Families in Nature

Using examples such as owls, groundhogs, bass, and wasps, the presentation encourages kids and adults to imagine what it might be like to have parents from the wild while learning about the many ways different species raise their offspring.
