​Join this audio description tour of the exhibition Queer British Art

Featuring works from 1861–1967 relating to lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer (LGBTQ) identities, the show marks the 50th anniversary of the partial decriminalisation of male homosexuality in England. Queer British Art explores how artists expressed themselves in a time when established assumptions about gender and sexuality were being questioned and transformed.

This tour is led by Emily Stone and takes place seated in the exhibition. Sighted companions and guide dogs are welcome. Hearing loops and amplifyers are avaliable.

Please meet in the Manton Studio from 10.30 for tea and cake.

If you have any other access needs that you would like to let us know about please contact: Anna Murray, Assistant Curator: Access anna.murray@tate.org.uk or call +44 (0)20 7887 8888.
