We’re all ears! Are you? As part of the Multisensory Art Cart, we invite you to find an artwork that inspires you to think about sound. You can use this curated audio playlist to accompany your journey through the AGO!
Spend a few moments listening to the sounds in the playlist as you spend time with the artwork and consider:
