About
We welcome you together into the Gallery to engage with the environment and space, taking a closer look to discover a playful opportunity in some of our paintings.
Inside the Art Studio the session is designed to promote curiosity and holistic learning through open-ended, sensory and creative possibilities.
There will be several set-ups to engage a mixed early years age group, supported by continuous play provision which links directly to the gallery and collection.
During sessions, children must be accompanied by a parent/carer.
After the session you are welcome to enjoy your packed lunch in the Social Space of the Centre for Creative Learning.
