Public Programmes play a key role in fulfilling the Whitechapel Gallery’s mission statement: To bring modern and contemporary art and ideas to local, national and international audiences by providing a place for free-thinking, creativity and learning.

Public Programmes engage with current critical thinking that cuts across disciplines, bringing different speakers together for in-depth and focused discussion – from artist and curator-led talks, screenings and performative events, to seminars and short academic symposia inviting artists, theorists and curators to consider particular themes relevant across the Gallery’s programming. Partnering with a range of art organisations, universities, publishers and further education institutions, the programme develops broad networks to support and expand cultural activity locally, nationally and internationally.
