A multisensory visit adapted to the needs of audiences with memory loss, a dementia diagnosis, and their carers.
In this outreach activity, a sensory kit is used to introduce selected works from the CAM collection through our five senses: sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch.
What scents might a work of art hold? And what sounds?
If a work of art could be eaten, what would it taste like – and why? What textures do materials reveal to the touch? And how do we actually see a work of art – do we all see the same things?
Through a lively game that combines interpretive questions with proposals for sensory and creative exploration, participants are invited to take on shared challenges.
