A quieter time to experience the captivating world of rule-breaking American artist James McNeill Whistler

Join us on these relaxed mornings to enjoy James McNeill Whistler in a gallery environment with limited numbers of people.

These events are open to anyone who is disabled or neurodivergent and any other visitors with sensory needs who prefer a more relaxed experience, plus their families, friends and carers.

Resources will be available on the day including:

  • Access Station
  • Ear defenders

Tate staff will be aware that this is an access hour and will take that into consideration as they look after you and the artwork.
