Activity Overview

Located on the campus of Washington University the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum focuses on modern and contemporary art. Entrance is free meaning everyone can enjoy their permanent exhibitions and their regularly rotating special exhibitions. The Museum also plays host to various educational programs for children and adults. Both public and private tours of the exhibition spaces are available.

Things to Do
