Art School… in a Trail!

Pick up a free family-friendly trail at the Museum this February half-term and see art in a whole new light.

Art School... in a Trail! is a free spotter trail from Kids in Museums and Hachette, celebrating the release of ‘Art School (in a book)’.

Brought to you by the makers of hit podcast ‘Talk Art’ – actor Russell Tovey and gallerist Robert Diament – the book offers an exciting introduction to the world of contemporary art for young creatives.

Look out for six mission stops dotted around the Museum. Each stop unlocks a creative challenge designed to help you look at and chat about art in fun new ways. Complete the activity sheet to receive your Art School sticker at the Welcome Desk!

There’s also a special drawing competition. Share your artwork on Instagram or BlueSky with the hashtag #ArtSchoolTrail and tag @kidsinmuseums for a chance to win some fantastic prizes, including a Double National Art Pass Plus Kids and a signed copy of ‘Art School (in a book)’.
