Autograph is a place to see things differently. We warmly welcome schools, FE/HE, community and youth groups, SEND, and tours to book a free, self-led group visit to Autograph's gallery in Shoreditch, London. You can see two new photography exhibitions soon: Eileen Perrier: A Thousand Small Stories, contemplating class, cultural identity and belonging through the photographic portrait, and Dianne Minnicucci: Belonging and Beyond, exploring vulnerability and discomfort in front of the camera can become acts of self-discovery and collaboration.
