Schools & Colleges

Our associate artists will share their creative thinking and making with your class as they guide you around the gallery. These sessions explore specific themes and support collaboration, play, risk taking and resilience as your pupils create their own work.

Our schools and colleges programme is free for Manchester schools.  

  • Nurture creativity by giving young minds space to wonder, explore, and discover
  • Support wellbeing by putting creativity at the heart of learning and offering a calm and reflective space for all
  • Champion young people to own their citizenship and use art to influence change

Our artist led 1.5 hours workshops are free for Manchester Schools.
