Free volunteer guided tours for members of the Deaf community are scheduled on the last Sunday of the month from January to November. A NAATI accredited Auslan interpreter accompanies our guide on these tours. See the Unknown block type "reference", specify a component for it in the `components.types` option for details of the next tour.

Visitors with a cochlear implant, hearing aid or hearing loss are invited to join a small group tour led by a volunteer guide. Assistive listening devices (FM system) are available and tours are scheduled on the fourth Friday of the month between January and November. Capacity is limited and bookings are essential.

On selected days throughout the year, Autistic visitors and people with sensory sensitivity or disability are invited to experience the gallery in a relaxed environment, and where possible, outside of usual gallery hours.

These events are generally scheduled to coincide with major exhibitions or community awareness days. Volumes within the Gallery are lowered or turned off where possible. High sensory areas are signposted and quiet zones are available.

An information sheet with sensory floorplan is developed to assist with planning a visit.
