ACCESS
These workshops will involve using recycled materials (plastics, papers etc), scissors, paint, and natural adhesives - it could get messy! The gallery will be theatrically lit and the workshop area is situated in the right hand corner of the exhibition, it will be noisy with people moving around and talking. There will be seating available for those working or waiting to take part. If the tables are full it won't take long till a space becomes available - you can look at the exhibition or visit the rest of the building.
If you have a disability which makes 'drop-in' style workshops difficult to coordinate please get in touch to discuss how to facilitate your involvement - contact tramwayexhibitions@gmail.com
There is no BSL interpretation for these workshops. The artist facilitators can use speech to text app on a phone to give written instruction/or guidance as required, however as much of the information as possible will be practically demonstrated and/or physically guided.
The gallery is wheelchair accessible and more information about the building can be found here
Project co-curated with Kelsey Cronin
