Join us for members-only tours of the Wexner Center the third Thursday of every month!

Introducing a new benefit exclusively for Wex members: free tours led by Wex educators that offer a chance to explore our galleries in a more intimate setting. This is your opportunity to explore what's behind the grid and dive deeper into the current exhibition, Peter Eisenman's controversial architecture, and all the nooks and crannies of the Wex that are not accessible to the public.

Please note: Third Thursday Tours are taking a break for the summer, but we look forward to exploring the autumn exhibitions with you in September!
