Where Fine Art Meets Playful Discovery

At Touch The Art, we believe that the world of fine art should be fun, accessible, and engaging—especially for kids. That’s why we’ve created a space where children can interact with famous artworks through humor, storytelling, and touchable experiences that spark curiosity and creativity.

Founded by authors and art lovers Amy Guglielmo and Julie Appel, Touch The Art began with a simple yet powerful idea: bring the beauty of the world’s greatest masterpieces into the hands of young readers. What started as a bestselling series of tactile fine art books has grown into a full experience—online and off—that connects kids and families to the magic of art.

Our Mission

We’re on a mission to make fine art fun, educational, and hands-on. Through our award-winning books, activities, and creative resources, we help kids explore classic works by artists like Monet, Van Gogh, Warhol, Matisse, and da Vinci—with a giggle and a gentle nudge to touch and explore.
