The Book of Esther in the Age of Rembrandt Audio Description Tour

Join us for a 90-minute audio description tour that explores how different communities living in the 17th-century Netherlands looked to and used the figure of Esther and her story in various ways. Through art and material culture, learn how the queen of Persia became a Dutch heroine. 

We welcome and prioritize visitors who are blind, have low vision, or have a learning need that would benefit from an experience that includes AD. Capacity is limited. If you have questions about this accessible tour, please email Molly Hull at mhull@ncartmuseum.org.
