Description
The Art Bridges Foundation's Traveling Exhibitions program is designed to help museums and cultural institutions that have organized or are developing exhibitions but need additional support to tour them across the United States. Art Bridges manages the logistics of the tour—covering direct costs such as insurance, crating, packing, and shipping—and provides strategic and logistical support to ensure successful exhibition tours and audience outreach. The program aims to expand access to American art by enabling exhibitions to reach a wide array of venues, fostering collaboration and community engagement among museums of all sizes.
