London, National Portrait Gallery

The Art of Access seminar will explore approaches and best practice of museums and galleries in developing accessible, creative arts programmes to engage audiences with additional support needs. Using current case studies, we will share and discuss programme approaches, challenges and solutions including the new development of a creative art studio at the National Portrait Gallery for artists with learning disabilities and Pallant House Gallery’s long-established and ground-breaking Outside In and Partners in Art which provides opportunities for artists who see themselves as facing a barrier to the art world.The seminar will be an active skills-sharing session for anyone working to engage and reach new audiences and increase access to the cultural and charitable sector.
