"For who?" is a question we’ve asked ourselves at every point of our rigorous process. Although the stories must come from the objects, the audience must be considered. Thanks to over five years of studying how individuals interact with art, the DIA is becoming a leader among art museums in understanding visitors. From the novice to the expert and everyone in between we have developed a balanced approach that helps everyone connect to our collection. Thoughtful integration of technology, new labels, tours, classes, reading materials and more will all further enhance the experience and help you—the visitor—find your own personal meaning through art.
