Accessible Museums and Galleries

Mexico City is home to some of the world’s most renowned museums and galleries, and many of these institutions have made significant efforts to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. For example, the National Museum of Anthropology has accessible entrances, elevators, and restrooms, as well as tactile models and audio guides for people with visual impairments. The Museum of Modern Art also offers audio guides and sign language interpretation for people with hearing impairments. Additionally, some institutions have adjusted their space and content so that audiences with physical disabilities can visit galleries obstacle-free, or so that those with visual disabilities can touch pieces with their own hands.
