New BMA Audio Tour for Families
Now Available!
The BMA is one of the only museum audio tours with a dog leading the way. Raoudi, Matisse’s perky schnauzer, is the voice behind the Museum’s new Family Audio Tour, which highlights 20 objects in the collection. Rather than headphones, the Family Audio Tour offers a handheld audio device that allows families to pause and chat about a work.
