9.6 million people visit the Louvre each year. More than the MoMA, MET, Whitney, Vatican, and Pompidou combined. Many snap a quick selfie with Mona Lisa or Venus de Milo and then they’re off wandering Paris again. What they don’t know is that there is so much more to The Louvre. They’re missing the good stuff——thousands of national treasures and hidden gems.
Come with me for exclusive afterhours access to see the Louvre for more than its highlight reel.
I want to send a huge "Merci!" to the amazing team at @MuseeLouvre. Working with you at this world famous museum was simply incredible. I cannot wait to return!
