The Workshop – Art Course for Fall Semester 2024

The National Gallery of Iceland offers a creative and exciting art course for children in its new art workshop at Fríkirkjuvegur 7.

The course is inspired by the museum's exhibitions, where participants will explore the artworks while focusing on enhancing their color and form perception. Children will have the opportunity to use a variety of materials and work in different mediums such as painting and sculpture.

The aim of the course is to encourage children to approach visual art with greater confidence and curiosity. Teaching will take place through hands-on experiences, discussions, and artistic creation. At the end of the course, an exhibition will be held for friends and family to showcase the results of the children’s work.

Children should wear clothing suitable for painting, splashing, and having fun! The workshop is accessible to all.
