Tours

Get the most out of your visit to the Govett-Brewster Art Gallery | Len Lye Centre with a personal guided tour of the buildings, the history and stories, and the current exhibitions.
Two tour options are available – join a curator to gain in-depth insight into the life and work of Len Lye or the contemporary exhibitions or discover the Gallery’s story and exhibitions with one of our visitor services team.
