Join us at the Physicians’ Gallery on the last Wednesday of every month at 12.30pm for a curator-led talk exploring one of the objects on display in our Gallery.

Our topic for this talk is the history of asylum art - exploring the creative work of Victorian patients. These asylum residents documented their dreams, their inventions and their day-to-day lives in these deeply personal artworks.

 

This 20 minute talk is free, but booking is essential. The meeting point is in the Gallery.
