What are guided visits at MACBA?
What are guided visits at MACBA?
Guided visits are itineraries through temporary exhibitions and the MACBA Collection, led by professionals active in art, research and cultural mediation.

Each visit gives rise to variable situations, enabling us to think about and dialogue with the works exhibited, in relation to artistic, social and historical contexts. The tour is transformed into an open, lively and collective conversation, where each participant’s knowledge and ways of seeing come together to create a shared narrative.

These activities are conceived for people visiting the museum for the first time, as well as for any visitor interested in delving deeper into an exhibition proposal.
