The Art of Stories: A Literary Tour in the Metropolitan Museum

Aperçu
The Art of Stories: A Literary Adventure in the Metropolitan Museum of Art
We’re all storytellers, and we live in a world of stories.
All our interactive museum tours are inspired by stories, and we’re pleased to present our newest tour, a story…about stories themselves. “The Art of Stories” looks at tales of the Met, backstories of the works of art, narratives set in the museum, and the origin of stories themselves, seen through the perspective of works of art. From myths to fairy tales, fables to epic quests, the tour will transport participants to a cave full of treasure and heroes on daring quests, a sword in a stone and a girl who loses her shoe. We’ll see how stories can take us to other worlds, shift our viewpoint of the world we’re in….and sometimes literally save someone’s life.

If you love art and literature, you will find the story telling throughout The Met a very engaging experience. I was with a group of friends and we all agreed that it was a well worthwhile experience. I personally would like more stories related directly to artworks, like we did with a Renoir painting, but that is just a personal preference. Lots of fun and lots of learning all at the same time!

Looking for a creative, interesting and fun thing to do in NYC? May I recommend Fable & Lark tours! I took a tour with a group of friends and all of us loved it. The tour guide keeps a good pace, you learn the big picture details about the MET but what I loved is you get to hear the behind the scenes stories and interesting facts about the art that you can't learn anywhere else. I can't recommend this tour enough.

Thank you! So happy you could come along for "The Art of Stories!” We love making connections between stories and the works of art, and were delighted that you were able to join us! Thank you so much for your lovely words!

Evan is hands down one of the very best docents I’ve encountered. We have now done 3 tours through Fable & Lark and they have all blown me away. Evan is engaging and really knows her stuff! One of the best things is she speaks in such a conversational tone that you might miss that you’re learning things! All 3 of the tours we have done with them have brought us to areas of The Met that you would probably never make your way to on your own. They have a few more tours that will 100% be a part of our next trip to NYC.

Thank you! Such a pleasure to have you come along on three of our tours! It's always such a treat to see you both and talk all things bookish! Looking forward to tour number four!
