Community Initiatives
Location:  New Gallery

During each exhibition period, UCCA’s docents are invited to submit proposals for alternative museum tours. Alternative museum tours should encourage visitors to UCCA to explore new modes of engagement with artworks in the exhibition halls. In lieu of the usual “walk and talk” tour format, alternative museum tours will offer audiences the opportunity to interact with art via drawing, writing, singing, photography, etc. Participants for each tour will be accepted on a first come, first served basis.
