It's an unique opportunity to explore the city’s diverse creative spaces. 

On Friday 20 March the RWA is celebrating by hosting free Collection Drop-in Tours hosted by Curatorial and Technical Manager, Tristan Pollard.

Drop in to our Youngwood Room on the Lower Ground Floor from 10am-1pm or 2pm-4pm for a rare glimpse into the RWA's Permanent Collection and Archive.
