enjoy a virtual visit from The Dalí Museum

The Dalí Museum is bringing the culture and art of Salvador Dalí into your space—virtually. Community centers and facilities can set up this unique, interactive learning experience in their space, whether meeting face-to-face or online. Via Microsoft Teams or Zoom, a Museum’s trained docent will guide your group through Dalí’s key works while teaching about Surrealism, Dalí’s inspiration and the culture of Spain.

introducing salvador dalí in the community

Two themed offerings are available based on the needs of the space and are adapted to showcase grade-appropriate concepts tailored to adult learning:

  • Dalí & Spain: Groups will explore how the people, culture and landscapes of Spain shaped Dalí’s art and life. This theme is the #1 most requested field trip tour theme for students at The Dalí.
  • Big Ideas: Groups will learn how Dalí sought knowledge and looked to different disciplines for inspiration. From dreams, math, science and religion, Dalí expanded his world with the goal of inviting viewers to see differently.

Each offering lasts 30-45 minutes depending on the length of available time. Self-administered tours and activities will be provided for groups to explore the Museum prior to and following the live interactive program via The Dalí Museum Mobile Guide, 360° Tour and other educational activities to further enrich the live experience.

This unique introduction to The Dalí Museum and Salvador Dalí is open to community centers, assisted living facilities and adult learning groups for a fee of $180 per virtual field trip.
