A family-friendly workshop for visitors who prefer a calmer, less crowded environment.

This event is for visitors who prefer a calmer, less crowded environment. During a quiet opening we reduce noise levels, flashing lights and crowds as much as possible.

The family-friendly workshop will be held in our accessible, top floor studio. This will be in a calmer less crowded environment with access to a quiet safe space. In honour of Black History Month and as part of the Big Draw Festival, we will look at artists of colours who have made a mark in art, with different activities inspired by their work on display.

Sensory bags which include ear defenders are available for visitors to use during their time in the museum. These can be collected from the reception.

There will be a Quiet Safe Space in the North Room. Please ask a member of staff for directions.

We have created visual storyboards, which help you see around our museum before your visit.
