Sensory Friendly Workshop @ V&A South Kensington, London

Come along to our Sensory Friendly monthly workshop for neurodiverse visitors of all ages and their families.

As a family you’ll get to design, make, experiment and draw using lightboxes, overhead projectors and a range of materials. Play with light and dark, reflections, shadows, and colours.

If you need a break, there will be a breakout space available through the day, with one within the event space and the other nearby. This space will have: a blackout tent, cushions, sensory toys, and ear defenders.

All activities are optional, and you can visit at any point during the event timings, between 11am – 4pm. However, please book your tickets to give us an idea if you’re likely to visit us earlier 11am-1:30pm, or later in the day 1:30-4pm.

These sessions are created and led by Groundswell Arts.

This is an activity for families where either a child or the parent/ carer/ guardian has a neurodiversity or sensory processing disorder. This is a free, drop-in event for families to enjoy all together; no child can be left unattended. Suitable for ages 5+.

All materials will be provided, all sourced sustainably. No previous creative experience is necessary.

Siblings, family members, and carers, of all ages are all welcome (please book a space for each child attending).

The Museum is accessible and step-free. Please find further information by clicking here
