ART-REACH ACCESS
The Delaware Contemporary is a proud partner with nonprofit Art-Reach to create more accessible programming! ACCESS is a public initiative that empowers those individuals and families who come from a low-income household, or those with disabilities, to engage with arts and culture in Delaware at a rate they can afford. This means you can now use the Delaware EBT card or Art-Reach’s ACCESS Card to visit, which empowers those from a low-income household or a household with disabilities to engage with our programming.
Present your Delaware EBT Card or Art-Reach ACCESS Card at our Front Desk and receive free art kits that include activities and supplies for artists of all ages and skill levels along with gallery guides that promote close looking and conversation connected to contemporary works of art. TDC welcomes all who seek to experience art. Neurodivergent visitors or visitors with sensory processing differences can borrow a sensory friendly pack (includes a social story, museum map, fidgets, noise-cancelling headphones and lightly weighted vest) to support their museum experience.
