Soapbox Are you with or against the group?

14 March 2018 at 11.00–13.00

Free for Members

Sir John Everett Millais, Bt, Christ in the House of His Parents (‘The Carpenter’s Shop’) 1849–50. Tate.

Forming an opinion on art: are you with or against the group?

Using the idea of a 'balloon debate’ (where several speakers attempt to win support from their audience) for this Soapbox we will debate some Tate artworks and test whether persuasive voices and discussion can influence our initial response.

What is soapbox?

Soapbox at Tate Britain is an opportunity for people near or beyond the age of 60 to meet, to air opinions and share discussions on life and art.
Soapbox explores links between social issues that are important to you and the work of artists from our collection that are on display at Tate Britain. Soapbox will challenge your thinking and offer you the chance to say what you feel in a supportive and friendly group.​
