Families and children
We offer free admission for full time students, guided tours and workshops for a range of learners including Key Stages 1-5, college and university groups.
Free 20 minute tours focus on a selection of works as the starting point to explore a specific theme. The works are always examined within their cultural, social and historical contexts and stylistics comparisons are drawn between them. During the talk students will learn how to look at artworks, to observe details and to interpret the artist’s message. Pupils will be encouraged to comment and share their ideas with one another.
Workshops are delivered by Estorick staff or freelance arts educators and can be based upon our permanent collection or temporary exhibitions. Sessions focus on selected works from our collection, before allowing participants to explore ideas and themes further through practical activities. They cost £80 for 1-2hrs, including all materials for a maximum of 30 students. Please contact us for a Teachers’ Packs for more details and guidance for planning your visit.
