Artists in Residence
The Relaxed Session enables visitors with additional needs such as sensory processing differences, SEND or other neurodivergence to experience the installation in a calm and comfortable way.
The sound/AV will be lowered and capacity in the gallery will be decreased by 50% or more.
We want our events to be as accessible as possible, therefore this exhibition is Pay What You Can. We are asking visitors who are able to do so to consider making a donation to support the work of Somerset House.

HOME
HOME is Manchester’s centre for international contemporary culture. Since opening in May 2015 it has welcomed over 7 million visitors to its 3 galleries, 5 cinemas, 2 theatres. Our mission is to create and share high-quality art that improves the life chances of the people of Manchester. The gallery programme is characterised by cross artform collaboration and transgressive practices with a strong history of commissioning and curating new work by international, UK and NW based artists, over the last 10 years and at Cornerhouse retrospectively. After a period of social, political and continued economic upheaval, the programme strives to be self-reflective, institutionally aware, exploring under-represented and alternative narratives through solo, group exhibition and inviting artists to curate, increasing vantage points and embracing alternative approaches to curation.
