Blind and partially sighted adults are invited to explore The Amelia’s collections through touch, sound and imagination.

Our Sensing Culture workshops offer a relaxed, creative environment where you can experience objects up close, discover new stories and enjoy making art together.

Sessions take place monthly, on the last Friday of each month, from 10:30am to 12:30pm, in the Artist Residency Studio at The Amelia Scott.

What to expect

• Object Handling: Explore authentic museum objects through guided touch with support from our trained staff.

• Tactile Tours: Take part in sensory-led journeys through our galleries and private tours of temporary exhibitions.

• Creative Making: Try out different materials and create your own artwork inspired by the collection.

No previous art experience needed.
