Join us for an informal discussion and exploration of our visual arts collection. These sessions are designed for those in need of additional support, due to health, wellbeing support, memory or concentration loss. Led by our arts education specialist, Brian Scholes, they offer a relaxed environment, with seating available and talks adapted to suit the needs of those in the group.

We will offer a safe space for you to enjoy relaxed time together to study our visual arts collections, with the support and encouragement of our team. We do not expect all participants to actively join in with conversation, but they are welcome to if they feel comfortable doing so. We welcome questions, knowledge-sharing and your suggestions for future Awaken the Arts sessions, so if you have a particular artwork you would like us to focus on, please ask and we will include this in future sessions. 

Friends, partners and care-givers are welcome to join in and share the experience with their loved ones. If you wish to bring a group, please email us to book in advance. We can offer booked group sessions at different times and dates to fit in with your regular group meet-ups.
