VISITING

We warmly welcome school groups at both of our award-winning venues, showcasing the very best of national and international contemporary art, including that produced in the region.

Groups can be self-directed, following their own curriculum interests or they can take an artist-led approach, which will investigate the themes of an exhibition, through creative thinking and doing.
