Would you or someone you know enjoy a calmer museum experience? Join our monthly Relaxed Opening Hour. These sessions are ideal for, but not limited to, people with autism, dementia, mental health conditions and sensory needs.
The Relaxed Opening includes access to the entirety of the museum. At 12:00 sound will be switched back on, but visitors to this session are welcome to remain in the museum for as long as they like.
Relaxed means:
- Where possible, loud sounds from audiovisual displays, interactives and films will be reduced or switched off
- A Sensory Map of the museum is available to help you learn about sound levels, lighting levels, tactile opportunities and which galleries are more/less crowded
Please note that there are some sounds we are unable to change
