Sensory play sessions in the beautiful surroundings of the gallery, especially for non-walking babies and their grown-ups

We understand that caring for a baby can be lonely at times. Art Baby is a warm, welcoming and supportive environment where you can meet, play and talk with other parents and carers.

These sensory play sessions are also specially designed to help develop your baby’s physical and social skills. With loads of space to crawl and explore, and lots of new things to look at, the gallery is a great place to play and bond with your baby.

‘I truly believe these sessions are good for my health. I feel healed when I come here. An hour in this room makes me feel like a new person’ – Art Baby participant

Price: Free
