Step inside Meschac Gaba’s Art and Religion Room for a unique tarot reading experience

The Art and Religion Room brings together over 75 objects related to various world religions and cultures. It is part of Meschac Gaba’s Museum of Contemporary African Art, created between 1997-2002 and intended to broaden notions of what a museum can be. You are invited to have a tarot reading in the centre of the installation, surrounded by symbols of Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Vodún and other traditional African faiths.

The tarot readings will take place on a first-come first-served basis. Each reading will last 15 minutes.

All Tate Modern entrances are step-free. You can enter via the Turbine Hall and into the Natalie Bell Building on Holland Street, or into the Blavatnik Building on Sumner street.

There are lifts to every floor of the Blavatnik and Natalie Bell buildings. Alternatively you can take the stairs.

  • Fully accessible toilets are located on every floor on the concourses.
  • A quiet room is available to use in the Natalie Bell Building on Level 4.
  • Ear defenders can be borrowed from the Ticket desks.
