Learning trails
Ben Uri provides a programme of events to enable families to explore the exhibitions, take part in a learning trail developed by children for children, and get making during our exhibition themed art workshops.
We also run family art workshops to learn about and celebrate important Jewish Festivals, such as Purim and Sukkot. Previous events have included making collage landscapes, mini suitcases and Purim masks. Children of all ages are welcome, but must be accompanied by an adult throughout the visit.
Ben Uri is a family friendly gallery. Children are very welcome to come along and view the exhibitions (though large groups of children must be pre-booked).
Free admission for children
Admission for free if you are under 16 and our Learning Team have developed fun and engaging worksheets to keep little hands busy during their visit, so ask at reception for learning materials when you arrive.
Also look out for Ben Uri’s exciting Family Art Days and our range of After School and Holiday Art Clubs. Please contact the Learning and Outreach Coordinator for further information contact us.
