Discover the Still in a whole new way with an exclusive behind-the-scenes experience! Each Still Uncovered Tour begins with a 60-minute guided exploration of the building and galleries, focusing on Still’s work, the architecture, and the unique nature of the collection and the Museum. The second portion invites guests to engage with specialized staff in secure Museum spaces not open to the public.

In June, explore what happens inside the Museum’s Conservation Lab and speak to members of the conservation team, who seek to preserve and interpret cultural objects through research of art and artists (and their creative methods), art history, materials science, and technology. Participants will gain a basic understanding of the nuances of modern conservation practice while witnessing paintings in different stages of treatment.  Conservators will discuss the tools and techniques used to restore artworks.

Still Uncovered Tours provide unique opportunities for guests to engage deeply with both the public and private sides of the Museum. Tours are limited to 10 people and require registration. Tours are available from 3–4:30 p.m. on the 2nd Friday of each month and open to visitors 13 and older.
