Art Gallery
What are they and what do they involve?
Art galleries are venues dedicated towards exhibiting the many different forms of art in the best way possible. A visit to a gallery can involve many things depending on the type of art featured there; the most traditional exhibition has the art hanging on the walls for public view, but experiences can involve getting involved with performances or even making art yourself!
What are the benefits?
Visiting an art gallery comes with many great benefits – exhibitions of art from throughout history are an excellent alternative method of learning about the past and the various styles and traditions of different periods. Also, art galleries can be good ways of inspiring students into creating their own art and teaching them new ways of expressing themselves, whether it’s contemporary or classical art that motivates them.
What students is it suitable for?
You will have to choose your specific venue carefully, but art exhibitions can be fun for all ages and types of student! Bigger galleries often have specialist school tours with activities to engage groups with the art which can make things more interesting for younger pupils.
Costs?
Some exhibitions that are more commercially focused will have entry costs, but the majority of art galleries are free to access!
Safety Implications?
Always make sure students (especially younger groups) are adequately supervised in an art gallery, as they can be quite large and easy to get lost in.
