Embracing New Perspectives
Our mission is to champion contemporary art’s role in everyday life while welcoming all to celebrate the American spirit in a setting that unites the power of art, music, nature, and culinary art. Our travel program includes unique experiences that may awaken your imagination, deepen your understanding of the past, present, and future, and provide opportunities to challenge your perception of art, nature, and architecture. We ask for open hearts and minds, universal respect for staff and other patrons, and the ability to have empathy as we explore creativity and new perspectives on local, national, and global levels. In this professional and collaborative spirit, Crystal Bridges and the Momentary does not tolerate comments or behavior towards artists, hosts, staff, or fellow travelers that are not reflective of these values. We reserve the right to withdraw invitations to travel with the museum to any individuals who do not exhibit these shared values.
