Schools, Colleges & Universities
The Hepworth Wakefield’s schools and colleges programme is designed to inspire young people, encourage their creativity and enhance their cultural capital.
We welcome schools, colleges and universities to the gallery to learn in a creative and inspiring environment, surrounded by world-class art.
You can bring your group to the gallery to explore, draw, think, discuss and create through teacher-led visits or artist-led workshops.
To book your visit complete our online enquiry form.
Please note we are now fully booked for mornings until 22 October. The earliest arrival time available on these days is 1pm.
We ask that you book teacher-led visits two weeks in advance and artist-led workshops six weeks in advance. Artist-led workshops often get fully booked a term in advance.
We offer FREE entry to the gallery for all students visiting as part of a pre-booked learning group, plus complimentary tickets for all accompanying staff.
