The Keeper of Paintings
Step into a hidden world of art and magic at the National Gallery.
An immersive experience for children 7–11
For as long as there have been humans, there have been Keepers – immortal, magical beings who exist just outside the normal realms of time and space. Their role is to be caretakers and custodians of our world and the most wondrous things in it.
The Keeper of Paintings is one such being, guardian of the National Gallery’s collection, tasked with using their powers to preserve the magical essence of art and culture through the ages, for every generation.
Joined by their trusty cat sidekick, Claws Monet, the Keeper wields the magic contained within five gems on their Palette of Perception to keep the collection safe.
Unfortunately, even the Keeper can’t always stop things from going wrong, and they often find themselves in need of help from young Keepers-in-training.
There are three experiences to enjoy with the Keeper of Paintings, so be sure to check them out before, during and after your visit to the Gallery!
