Gallery Explorer

Come and experience this sociable and fun alternative to audio guides using palm top computers. You are not fed bucket-loads of information which you immediately forget when you leave. You are asked questions! About what you can see, what you think, what connections you can make.

There are different types of paths to follow. Fun family ones, more challenging adult ones, stories, portraits, techniques…. its your choice.

These web based devices are interactive. You can record your answers using the keyboard. If you register in advance, you will be given your own personal ID number, so that all your answers are automatically saved in your own personal file. You can access this at another time on any computer linked to the internet, and relive your Dulwich Picture Gallery experience! 

For more details contact Ingrid Beazley at ingrid@beazley.netkonect.co.uk or watch Ingrid talk about Gallery Explorer on YouTube.
