Founded by arts patron Alice Walton and the Walton Family Foundation, Crystal Bridges houses one of the most lauded collections of American Art in the nation. The building was designed by world-renowned architect Moshe Safdie, and while its permanent collection spans five centuries of American masterworks, our trip will focus on its outstanding contemporary holdings.

Over the course of three inspiring days, we will also discover a unique sunset experience, The Way of Color, a “Skyspace” by world-renowned artist James Turrell, along with a private tour of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Bachman-Wilson house and a tour of The Momentary, the new contemporary art space at Crystal Bridges. Our home for this trip will be the sensational 21c Museum Hotel, which houses its own collection of contemporary art.
