Highly recommended - Our guide, Leigh, was phenomenal. Our group wanted to enjoy and learn about the artwork since our personal and professional lives have very limited interaction with the arts. She was able to provide wonderful stories and complemeted our trip with pieces that did align with our interests. We highly recommend!

Engaging and Personalized Gallery Experience - We had an incredible experience touring the National Gallery of Art with Leigh as our guide. She was not only extremely knowledgeable about the artwork and artists, but also had a wonderful way of explaining the historical context and artistic techniques behind each piece in a way that was both informative and engaging. Leigh took the time to ask about our personal interests in art and made a point to tailor the tour to include and highlight those areas, which made the experience feel even more personalized and meaningful. Her passion for art and thoughtful approach truly elevated our visit. Highly recommend booking a tour with Leigh—you’ll walk away with a much deeper appreciation for the collection!
