Public Tours

The Nasher Museum conducts drop-in tours for the public on most Thursday evenings at 6 PM and most Sundays at 2 PM. Capacity is limited.

Tour the Galleries with Your Group

Organized groups may schedule a guided tour of current exhibitions during regular museum hours. Tours are led by Nasher gallery guides and last approximately 60 minutes. Groups of up to 30 people are welcome and will be divided into smaller groups of 15 people or fewer for the tour.

Guided tours are $5 per person. We recommend scheduling your visit 4-6 weeks in advance.

To select a tour date and time, please email nashered@duke.edu.
