Join us for a tour for the visually impaired of our current solo exhibition by Michael Robinson Under the Wrong Star. These tours will be led by Emilie Conway, with RHA Exhibitions Curator, Ruth Carroll on Thursday 16th and Learning and Public Engagement Curator, Róisín Bohan on Saturday 18th.

Emilie Conway is an award winning musical artist, visual artist, art facilitator and art psychotherapist. She also has a visual impairment. The central role art plays in her own life drives her passion to explore collaborative art practice and experience of art, through creating audio described tours, with others who have a visual impairment.
