Audio Guide
The Bloomberg Connects app can be downloaded from a QR code in the Gallery, or from our website: Bloomberg Connects – Penlee House. This provides audio relating to some of the paintings in each of our temporary exhibitions, as well as selected works from Penlee’s collections on display.
