About this event

Join us for a British Sign Language (BSL) tour of our current exhibition, Sagarika Sundaram: Reservoir.

These tours are led by architect and art facilitator Martin Glover, a Deaf BSL user and experienced guide. The tours have been designed specifically with the Deaf community in mind.

After the tour, Martin will lead a creative workshop inspired by the exhibition. Refreshments will be provided.

For hearing companions who are non-signers, a BSL interpreter will be on standby throughout the sessions to voice-over in English.

Tickets

Tickets to this event are free, and can be booked online via Eventbrite.

We would like to offer these tours in the first instance to BSL users. If you are learning BSL or interested in finding out more and would like to attend, please contact us at research@henry-moore.org.

If you’d prefer to book over the phone, please call us on 01132 467 467.
