What you’ll do
Join artist Jamie Hale and neuroscientist Professor Sophie Scott in conversation as they explore how emotions are created in both the body and the brain.
What happens when we experience laughter and happiness and what does that tell us about ourselves. For example, why might we laugh most freely when we are with close family and friends?
You’ll be able to join in the discussions and ask questions. Then you’ll have the opportunity to share your own experiences and take part in creative activities based on the ideas raised.
This is a relaxed event. Cameras can be on or off as needed. You can move around and make noise at any time. If you need to dip in and out of the session, you can. There will be multiple ways to communicate, ask questions and participate (such as using the chat function if you do not want to use your voice).
If you have any access requests or requirements, for example a transcript of the event, email us at access@wellcomecollection.org or call 020 7611 2222.
This workshop is for 14- to 19-year-olds. It is limited to 16 places and booking is essential. You will be given joining instructions for Zoom in your confirmation email.
