The Touch Gallery
Now Open
RAM is pleased to announce the new The Touch Gallery! So often in museums, the warning “Please don’t touch the art” bombards visitors. This, of course, is a precaution to protect the art objects yet it deprives us of exploring surfaces and learning about materials, techniques and artistic intent with one of our most important sensory tools, our sense of touch.
