Access Tours and Workshops

Our Access Tours and Workshops introduce objects on display through an approach that accommodates the needs of visitors with diverse needs and abilities. Facilitated by museum educators, participants will have the chance to create connection with exhibitions through a guided gallery visit and a workshop that encourage them to be creative using ideas gained from the visit.

We welcome special schools and registered charitable or non-profit organisations related to rehabilitation services or persons with disabilities. All programmes are available on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Audio description in Cantonese and Hong Kong Sign Language interpretation can be arranged by request. In order for us to facilitate a better experience for the group, please specify anything we should know in the booking form to help us make your visit more inclusive and accessible.

Special arrangement under the Prevention and Control of Disease Regulation

If activities must be conducted in smaller groups following the Prevention and Control of Disease Regulation (Prohibition on Group Gathering Cap. 599G), thematic tours will be available in a self-guided format. M+ will provide an activity-based introductory briefing on the objects on display led by a museum educator before the groups visit the galleries.

We will also provide a content overview of activities rundown in order to prepare for the participants’ arrival to the museum. In addition, please plan to have additional teachers, staff, parents, companions to accompany participants during their visits to ensure their safety and a smooth running of self-guided tours.
