A relaxed morning is for anyone with access requirements, complex needs, anxiety or those who would feel more comfortable in a quieter environment.

You do not need to be quiet and are encouraged to be yourself, there will be additional staff available to support and an accessible introduction to the exhibitions, from our Learning Team.

On this day there will be an optional drop-in creative workshop responding to the exhibitions for people that would like to connect with the work in a sensory way.

If you have any questions or would like to communicate access needs in advance of attendance, please email learning@dlwp.com.

Drop ins are welcome but it is advisable to book a place so that we know capacity.

There is not a fixed start time to this event, and you can arrive anytime between 10am and 12pm. Please be aware that after 12pm the relaxed hours will be finished and the building may start to be busier with lunch time café audiences.
