Have fun asking questions about paintings and seeking out answers as our Gallery Educators guide you to independently explore the Gallery

How do we look at pictures, and what can a painting really tell us?

Explore the Gallery with our friendly Educator team and learn fun tips and tricks to unlock secrets hidden in plain sight, even if you’re seeing a painting for the first time. Discover how to decode pictures by looking, questioning, and discussing together in this interactive session.

Our Gallery Educators are asked intriguing questions by curious children everyday. Seek out answers to some of our Educator’s questions and feel curious to ask some of your own.

Take away simple, playful techniques to support enjoyable, confident visits to art galleries as a family.
