About this event
A calmer four-hour window in Wellcome's big autumn exhibition on ageing: fewer visitors, extra staff, ear defenders, tinted glasses, weighted lap pads, cushions and a low-lit chill-out room. Built for anyone who finds a busy gallery hard going, and a better way to see the show than a crowded weekday.
Why we picked it
A dated, scheduled relaxed opening — a real event rather than the museum's standing free admission — and the last one of this exhibition's run.
Free entry
Free. Admission shown as Free on the Wellcome Collection event page.
