Weekends at the gallery for families
Make the most of you free time together at one of our weekend activities. As one of our regular family visitors puts it, “It’s about showing your kids there’s more to life than sitting in front of the telly.“
Make: the first Saturday of every month
Saturdays 7 May, 4 June, 2 July, 6 August, 1 – 3pm
Come along to Family art club where you can play games and be creative in this relaxed two-hour workshop for you and your 6 – 11 year olds. Limited places please arrive early.
Imagine: the second weekend of every month
Saturdays and Sundays April 9 & 10, May 14 & 15, June 11 & 12, July 9 & 10, August 13 & 14
Drop into the gallery to experiment and play with the material of the month. From string to tin, paper to plastic – you’ll be amazed at the extraordinary things you can do with ordinary stuff. Stay for as little or as long as you want. Suitable for families with children of any age.
Drop in, no need to book.
Over to you!
Borrow a Story Bag or put on an Explorer Belt and embark on a journey of discovery around the building. Find Tony Ross’ funny picture labels and follow the drawing trail or feel your way along the handling trail and listen to the descriptions of the objects you’re touching.
