Public Tours in June Offer Chance to Explore the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden During its 20th Anniversary Celebration

Guggenheim Museum; and of ongoing collection exhibitions. Also offered in June are Spotlight Gallery Talks led by Walker curators and tour guides highlighting selected artworks or artists in the galleries.
Gallery admission is $10 adults; $8 seniors (65+), $6 students/teens (with ID) and free to Walker members and children 12 and under. Admission is free with a ticket to a same-day Walker event, $4 with a ticket stub up to six days after an event.
