Arts programme: A Head For Arts
A Head For Arts is the V&A’s free arts programme for people who have experienced mental distress at some point in their lives.
Arts Programme
Join us at the V&A for a series of fascinating events, including guided tours, talks and workshops linked to major exhibitions and new galleries. All events and activities are free and are delivered within an environment that is safe, understanding and encouraging.
Outreach: Talks & Object Handling Sessions
We can also bring the V&A to you. We make regular visits to Day Centres and other community-based venues, allowing you to touch objects from the V&A’s diverse collections, hear about the work of the Museum and experience the V&A in your own environment.
To find out more or arrange your free visit, on an individual or group basis, please contact the Programme Manager on +44 (0)20 7942 2060.
