About
In this series of talks, join Gallery Educator Dr Tilly Scantlebury who will take us through the collection, one painting at a time, using a ‘queer lens’. Through close looking and lively discussion, celebrate LGBTQ+ history month by revisiting these wonderful works from a different perspective.
This is a walking tour where various paintings will be explored in different rooms. Please meet in Central Hall for the start of the talk.
