Throughout the gallery, families are invited to discover three engaging areas designed to enhance your experience and help you explore both the space and our wonderful collection.

Explore
Discover the Burton Gallery with our Sensory Toolkit, created by artist Sarah Marsh. This interactive experience, suitable for all ages and abilities, encourages participation through sensory exploration of the gallery’s forms, colours, and textures. It is designed for quiet reflection.

Play
Get playful with costumes inspired by ceramic pots on display. Explore the shapes, colours, textures, and forms you see on gallery and mix and match to design your own wearable pot.

Create
Unleash your creativity with our Art Cart, stocked with drawing materials, intriguing objects, and inspiring activities linked to gallery artworks and exhibitions. Accessible for all ages and abilities, this space is designed for creative exploration.
