Learning events for everyone

YSP’s learning programme offers creative opportunities for all our visitors to discover skills and make memories. We have a vibrant programme for families, adults and communities, and a dedicated offer for schools and teachers.

For our youngest visitors, pick up a playful activity basket in the Underground Gallery and spark a conversation with the Talking Together cards. As the days get warmer, the magical Hidden Forest will re-open for child-led exploring, and our family favourite outdoor sculpture building returns. For families who love to explore, there are free Nature and Scavenger Hunts you can pick up, bursting with ideas to help you enjoy your visit.

Our schools and colleges programme supports students to explore and discuss sculpture in the landscape. Students can take part in artist-led Walk Talk Make and Outdoor Sculpture Building workshops, make screen prints inspired by Robert Indiana’s work, or uncover meaning through poetry and spoken word workshops. This year our teacher CPD sessions will focus on the importance of process and play with a series of handson sessions full of ideas to take back to the classroom.
