Additional Details
This FREE public tour is given and developed around the theme of "GETTING TO KNOW THE ARTIST" by Bevan Breaux. On this tour, get the inside scoop. The guide will share their experience meeting artists who have their work in the WAM collection to offer a behind the scenes biographical perspective on the work. This tour is dialogue and activity-based, meaning visitors will speak as much or more than facilitators. Be ready to participate!
ART BITES are 30-minute, 3-stop tours given by Student WAM Guides developed under instruction from WAM’s LEARNING & ENGAGEMENT ASSOCIATE, Olivia Comstock.
The current Student WAM Guide cohort is comprised of: JOSÉ MIGUEL MANRIQUE [They/Them] – (Sophomore, Product Design & Creative Writing) and BEVAN BREAUX [They/Them] – (Senior, Asian and Middle Eastern Studies/Japanese).
The WAM Guides program is a paid opportunity for University of Minnesota students to develop and lead interactive, close-looking tours of the museum for the visiting public. Drop in, meet other curious-minded museum goers, and listen to your WAM Guide approach the museum’s collection via a theme of their own choosing.
