Join us for an exclusive curator led tour of The Missing Thread.

There's a wealth of detail and untold stories in The Missing Thread, so join us on an exclusive tour led by one of the show curators - Andrew Ibi, Harris Eliott and Jason Jules (founders of the Black Orientated Legacy Development Agency). They'll delve deeper into the exhibition themes and inspirations, you'll pick up unique insights and spend more time with some of the highlighted works that define this timely show.

BOOK TICKETS

Each tour has a limited capacity, so advanced booking is recommended. Please ensure the time slot you've booked matches the time of the tour. Once you've added an exhibition ticket to your basket, you'll be given the opportunity to book a curator-led tour ticket, subject to availability.

The tours will last approximately 30 minutes, but you can continue to explore the exhibition once the tour has ended.
