Audio Description Tours
TULCA Gallery, Hynes Building, St Augustine St
Wednesdays 8 & 15 November 2023
5pm - 6pm
The TULCA Education team are offering a series of gallery tours to the public this year.
We use the model of Visual Thinking Strategies to facilitate an inclusive, student-centred discussion. These would take a learner-led conversational format that prioritised eliciting interpretations of the work from the viewer over imparting information to them, celebrating the breadth of conversations sparked through the shared experience of looking together. There will be worksheets that can be taken home afterwards, catered to different academic levels which will include a reflective exercise and a practical element.
Group bookings for educational institutions and community groups will be running during working hours, while there will be a focus on inviting the public in the evenings and the weekends.
For booking a group tour, please fill out this TULCA 2023 Gallery Tour Booking Form - https://forms.gle/Cn1xktCZrnvPdwn57
If you are interested in booking a tour outside of these dates with any specification, please contact Aoife at education@tulca.ie to make a booking.
