Tours

Knowledgeable interpreters conduct guided tours of the Thomas Hart Benton Home and Studio State Historic Site. At this time, there is no set schedule for tours; they can begin whenever you arrive during open hours. Each tour takes approximately 45 minutes and includes the first and second floor of Benton's home and the interior of his studio. There are stairs to access the second floor of the house. For those unable to climb stairs, informational booklets with descriptive text and photographs are available.

Costs for guided tours are $2.50 for adults, $1.50 for students (ages 6-12), and children under 6 are free. There is a maximum rate of $12 per family.
