Holiday Workshop

Children will be taken through the exhibition by our fully trained teacher-lecturers and will be shown a selection of key artworks, which they will imaginatively discuss and interpret. Following their tour, they will make their own artwork based upon the exhibition and its themes. Note: the workshop for 5–8 year olds is not a week-long workshop; it is repeated daily.
