Join our specialist tour guides to explore L.S. Lowry: The Theatre of Life. This solo exhibition of the work of Laurence Stephen Lowry (1887 – 1976) marks the 50th anniversary of the Painter’s death, and 13 years since his last significant institutional show. Lowry was a British painter, best known for his industrial landscapes of northwest of England.

With in-depth descriptions and hand-held touch elements, the tour will guide visitors through a unique selection of key artworks.

“It was absolutely fabulous – The last piece especially left me reeling for more! I can’t see much, but I got so much from the tour. I’d come every week if I could!” (Tour Participant)
