This is a free event and everyone is welcome

To access the event - we will meet at the gallery and walk across to the Deep at 11am - so that we can all enter together through the main entrance together. If you are going straight to The Deep then access will be through a side door - not the main entrance. Look out for the HEY volunteers in sky blue jackets who will direct you
