On arrival, please use the main entrance where you will be welcomed by a member of staff. 

You will be able to leave bags and coats in our trolleys and use the visitor toilets.  If you have booked a tour or hands-on session, your Navigator will meet you.

It is important to us that your group enjoys visiting Turner Contemporary and has fun learning. It is important too that our visitors are safe and that we take care of the art works on display. There are a few simple guidelines that will help you to have a successful visit:

- Please do not touch the art works in the exhibition.  Our Object Dialogue Box has been designed with artefacts for you to touch and is a great way to conduct a handling session.

- Please leave bags and coats on the trolleys when you arrive.

- You may take photographs in some exhibitions, but please check with a member of staff upon arrival and please do not use a Flash.

- We would really like you to draw in the galleries, but please only use dry materials. If there are a lot of people around an art work, please wait until they have moved on so that you can get the best view.

- Please do not bring food or drink into the galleries – items must be left in trolleys at the start of your visit.

Supervising adults are responsible for the care, welfare, behaviour and discipline of your party. If you have any questions during your visit, please ask our staff.

If you have booked a tour or hands-on session, the Learning Studio can be booked free of charge by your party at lunchtime for half an hour, subject to availability.

We provide proformas for risk assessment, group information and visit evaluation to help you plan and reflect upon your visit.

The gallery is fully accessible for visitors, with a ramp to the main entrance and café, as well as an internal lift to all upper floor galleries.
