About

Join us for a free descriptive gallery tour exploring art through audio-description and conversation, followed by a practical workshop for visually impaired visitors. In this session we will explore the biggest ever exhibition of Grayson Perry’s work, covering his 40-year career. Explore subversive pots, brilliantly intricate prints, elaborate sculptures, and huge tapestries – all imbued with Perry’s sharp wit and social commentary.

To book a free place, please use online booking or contact us on 0131 624 6410 or [email protected].
