THE Victoria Art Gallery in Bath regularly holds free workshops for blind and visually impaired people who love art.

The Art on Thursday group has around 12 members who meet up for informal sessions based around the Gallery’s current temporary exhibition.

Paintings and drawings with striking colours or images and sculptures that can be explored by touch are examined at each session.

The next sessions will be on Thursdays, November 18 and December 16 from 10.30am-12noon.
