More about this Workshop/Service and the Provider
Engage your students and enhance key curriculum areas with one of our educational tours. We offer guided tours of the sculpture gardens and studios free of charge, to school and college groups from Year 3 upwards.
ou can book a slot for up to 30 pupils and their adult helpers on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday mornings, starting at either 9.50am or 10.20am. One of our Volunteer Guides will accompany you and your students on a 90 minute tour of Henry Moore's studios, the monumental works in our 70 acre grounds and the special exhibition. Then, after your group’s lunch slot, you will have time to draw or take photographs in the grounds.
Our 2020 exhibition will be This Living Hand: Edmund de Waal presents Henry Moore. Acclaimed author and artist Edmund de Waal will curate a new display exploring the role of touch and the iconography of the hand in Henry Moore's art.
We now have limited availability for the summer term, with very few slots remaining for May, June and July 2020.
