Itinerary

  1. The Phillips Collection

    Admission included

    Step into an intimate, art-filled escape with a Cultural Companion outing to The Phillips Collection, America’s first museum of modern art. Housed in a former Dupont Circle residence, the Phillips offers a deeply personal way to experience masterpieces by Renoir, Rothko, O’Keeffe, Matisse, and more—encountered room by room, as if visiting a well-traveled friend’s home.

    Your Cultural Companion guides the pace and focus of the visit, offering context, storytelling, and gentle conversation prompts that make the art accessible and engaging—whether you’re a seasoned museumgoer or simply curious. Together, we’ll pause with iconic works like Luncheon of the Boating Party, explore the emotional power of the Rothko Room, and uncover lesser-known gems.

    The experience continues with a relaxed lunch at the museum’s café, enjoying seasonal fare in a light-filled setting—time to reflect on what you’ve seen and savor art experienced slowly and in good company.
