About this Event
Tap your toes or show off your best moves at the Dementia-Friendly Disco from 2-4pm at Manchester Art Gallery. A line-up of LGBTQ+ community DJs will be backed with archive video projections. Hear their selections of uplifting pride anthems from across the decades in an accessible and lower-volume, low-sensory space with plenty of seating. Dance, hangout for a while or grab a free juice or hot drink.
