Picture the past at the Museum. Book a Verbal Imaging Tour, which is free and designed to meet the needs of visitors with visual disabilities.

Scheduling a Tour

Verbal Imaging Tours are guided by trained volunteer docents who will give detailed verbal descriptions of the artifact highlights in the permanent galleries. Object replicas will also be available for participants to touch and feel the rich material culture housed at the ISAC Museum.

Submit your request for a tour to begin the process of booking your visit. You will receive an email confirmation within 5 business days when your visit has been booked. Requests for Verbal Imaging Tours must be received 45 days in advance, and requested dates and times are subject to availability. The maximum group size for Verbal Imaging Tours is 30.
