These sessions can be tailor-made to your requirements so please call to discuss prices and facilities.

These sessions offer you the chance to see the new exhibitions before they open to the public.  Members of the Learning Team will take you on a tour of the gallery spaces, followed by a practical artist-led session exploring how your school can respond the exhibition when visiting Firstsite.

These take place from 4–6pm, allowing you to attend the Opening Celebration straight afterwards if you wish.
