BSL-interpreted gallery tour of Tenderness and Rage, Wellcome

Wellcome Collection, Gallery 3

A free guided tour of the Tenderness and Rage display in Gallery 3 at Wellcome Collection on Euston Road, interpreted into British Sign Language. A member of the Visitor Experience and Engagement team walks you round the exhibition, explores its themes and gives a personal view of the artworks and objects, and you are invited to ask questions and share your own responses. A BSL interpreter translates for the guide and during group discussions. Booking is through the Wellcome page for this event, and the display itself runs until 13 December. Because the tour is a small group conversation rather than a lecture, it is an easy way to see a London exhibition with other people. «BSL Interpreted Tours of Tenderness and Rage» Starts 14:30, ends about 15:30.

BSL-interpreted tour of The Coming of Age, Wellcome Collection

Wellcome Collection, Gallery 1

A free guided tour of the exhibition The Coming of Age in Gallery 1 at Wellcome Collection on Euston Road, with a British Sign Language interpreter. A member of the Visitor Experience and Engagement team leads the group around the show, draws out its themes and gives a personal view of selected artworks and objects. Visitors are invited to ask questions and share their own reactions, and the interpreter translates for the guide and for the group discussion that follows. Booking is through Eventbrite, but a ticket does not guarantee a place: the museum asks you to arrive 15 minutes before the start, and a waiting list may operate if the tour is full. The tour takes an hour on a Wednesday late morning and is a relaxed way to see a London exhibition in company. «BSL Interpreted Tours of The Coming of Age» Starts 11:30, ends about 12:30.

Audio described gallery tour at Wellcome Collection, London

Wellcome Collection, Gallery 2

Wellcome Collection offers a free audio described tour of its two current exhibitions, Audrey Amiss: The Surviving Exhibitions and Rudy Loewe: Intimacies of Care. A guide describes the key visual elements of each show and talks through highlights from both, which suits blind and partially sighted visitors and anyone who enjoys a spoken, detailed way of looking. The tour takes place in Gallery 2 on Wednesday 18 November from 15:30 to 16:30, during a Lights Up session in which the gallery has brighter, more even lighting. Groups are small, so a place must be booked in advance through the ticket link on the event page. The page advises arriving fifteen minutes early and mentions a waiting list for full sessions. A small guided tour is a gentle way to take part alone. «Lights Up and Audio Described Tours of the Audrey Amiss and Rudy Loewe Exhibitions» Starts 15:30, ends about 16:30.

  1. One easy meeting point — a station exit, a statue or a park gate anyone can find.
  2. 60–90 minutes, start and end time in the invite.
  3. A loop route so nobody is stranded at the far end.
  4. Finish at a café — the talk often continues sitting down.
  5. Walk at a pace for talking: if someone is out of breath, slow down.
