Private New York City Art Tours for the Family

Art Smart Adventures: Your family, fascinated.
When you are looking for something to do with your kids in New York City, the standard art museum tour can be a gamble. With all the focus on the adults and their interests, it’s easy for kids to feel turned off and left out.
That is why we created Art Smart Adventures, private museum and gallery tours designed to make the most of your family’s time together by exploring art and culture in New York in a fun, engaging, and, yes, educational way.
Every family is unique, and so is every Art Smart Adventure. We understand that families with younger children may want to explore straight-from-the-storybook curiosities like real Egyptian mummies or the armor of medieval knights. Older kids may prefer to examine interactive works or edgier, more thought-provoking pieces. Tours are always age-appropriate—with the right balance between fun and education. From discovering monumental sculptures that wow everyone to finding sunlit and spacious areas where kids can be kids—we keep everyone enthralled so that parents can relax and learn and enjoy as well.
Our adventures include an explorer’s bag filled with treats such as treasure maps, binoculars, and our custom-designed passports with stickers. We can also create an art-themed treasure hunt for you and your kids. Just let us know where you would like to explore, the ages of your children, and a few general interests of each child. We’ll take it from there.
