A sensory exhibition set in total darkness, designed to enlighten you and push you out of your comfort zone
Opening hours: Monday - Sunday 10.00-19.00
Dialogue in the Dark Experience is an incubator for social change. It creates employment opportunities for people with sight loss while creating a platform to share their experiences with the visitors which leads to life-changing conversations, one visitor at a time. Experiencing extraordinary and powerful emotions that are challenging, has a long-lasting effect on people. It also improves the quality of their human interactions and behaviour when immersed in a different world. Dialogue Experience certainly is not an ordinary exhibition. It is a platform for communication and a close exchange between different cultures, bringing powerful emotions that are challenging and has a long-lasting effect on people.

Our visit to the Dialogue Hub made a huge impact on our pupils. Each experience was unique and each experience taught something new and from an important perspective of equity and accessibility. Weeks later, our pupils are still practising their learnt BSL and some are trying to learn more and applying what they learnt at the Dialogue Hub to their everyday experiences. As a teacher, it is wonderful to see our pupils do this in real time and gives me more ways to continue addressing accessibility and social justice issues. This is such important work.
