Free Sunday Docent Tours and Global Portal Connection
The McMullen Museum offers free docent tours of Landscape of Memory every Sunday from 2:00 to 2:30 pm followed by an opportunity to meet people from around the world through the McMullen Portal. Transcending borders, Portals are interconnected audiovisual environments that allow visitors to converse with those in a distant Portal, as if in the same room. McMullen Portal sessions will connect with Mexico City, Mexico; Walkers Savannah, Barbados; Addis Ababa, Ethiopia; Nakivale, Uganda; Kigali, Rwanda; Johannesburg, South Africa; Gaza City, Palestine; Erbil, Iraqi Kurdistan; Bengaluru, India; and Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh.
Meet in the Museum Atrium. No prior registration is required. If you would like to schedule a separate, private tour, please contact the Museum at least two weeks in advance.
April Sunday Portal connections will include:
April 2, 2:15–3:15: Art + Culture in Johannesburg, South Africa
April 16, 2:30–3:30: Climate Change + Activism in Kigali, Rwanda
April 23, 2:30–3:20: Layers of History in Mexico City, Mexico
April 30, 2:30–3:20: Women's Empowerment in Kigali, Rwanda
