Free Art Experiences
Online options to explore RAM and other museums across the globe
Like many museums around the world, RAM and RAM’s Wustum Museum have temporarily closed in response to the current public health situation, but there are still plenty of opportunities to experience and engage with art from the comfort of your home!
RAM is utilizing Facebook and Instagram to bring art education directly to people—discussing the various artists, exhibitions, and programs at both museum campuses. Each day of the week features a post based on a different theme, including Makers Monday and Women’s Wednesday. Throwback Thursdays offer installation images of past exhibitions at RAM and RAM’s Wustum Museum, allowing followers to travel back in time to experience visitor favorites of the decade.
Additionally, Google Arts & Culture features a seemingly endless number of intimate virtual tours and 360-degree videos of museums, famous sites, and landmarks from across the globe
