Participate in an exclusive guided viewing experience of our mindful space Room to Breathe and help us learn more about the way we engage with art. This is not a ticketed event, just drop in
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Celebrating the recent opening of the new wellbeing space, Room To Breathe, the gallery is teaming up with psychologists at Goldsmiths, University of London to offer museum visitors a state-of-the-art viewing experience.
The research asks the question – How does art viewing in the gallery change our collective and individual experiences?
This 1-hour experience will give you the opportunity to learn about your own responses to art while participating in a guided viewing exercise in a closed gallery space. At the end of the session, everyone will report on their experience through a questionnaire and open-ended discussion with gallery and Goldsmiths staff.
Participation in this event is voluntary and will be compensated with a MAG café voucher.
If you would like to take part in this experience then please come to the gallery on any of the above dates and sign up.
For further information, please see Eventbrite (no need to book, just turn up 10-5 pm between 9-15 May)
