The Kunstpalast in Dusseldorf hosts a unique tour called 'Art with Baby', catering to parents with newborns. Initiated by art historian Carola Werhahn, this 10-year-old program allows mothers to experience art in a relaxed environment while managing their babies. Participants, often traveling from afar, appreciate the opportunity as it fosters a sense of community and normalcy. The exhibition, focused on (non-)motherhood, resonates with many mothers, advocating for more inclusive cultural experiences. This initiative reflects the broader need for welcoming spaces for parents in the art world, seen in similar programs globally.
Art historian Bettina Zippel emphasizes the importance of tours like 'Art with Baby' for mothers, stating that having babies in museums makes them feel welcomed and included.
Carola Werhahn reflects on her initiative, expressing joy that mothers can engage in cultural activities, stating, 'I think it's great when, as a new mother, you can do something for your mind.'
