Young people

Explore, learn and create in the studio where ‘England’s Michelangelo’ lived and worked.

Take part in a range of creative workshops, expert talks, and panels to gain insight into the artistic process and examine current issues in the world of museums and galleries.

The Young People's programme is particularly focused on providing for those between 13 and 19 years old, but may extend to 25 years old for specific events and workshops.

Students and under 25s get discounted access to exhibitions and events. Under 18s admission is free.
