We’re taking art and creativity on the road, across the nation.
From this May to May 2025, our travelling art studio programme, Art Road Trip, is visiting 18 places across the UK.
We’re going to be working with 24 local arts organisations to create community-led arts projects. In each location, we’ll design events for people with the least access to creative opportunities and the arts.
Our mobile art studio will host around two hundred public events and work with thousands of people to bring art and ideas inspired by the National Gallery Collection right to where they live.
Where is the Art Road Trip now?
Until Friday 31 May, Art Road Trip is working with Greater Shantallow in Derry/Londonderry. Over two weeks we will visit 10 different host partners engaging with communities across the city.
We are looking forward to visiting local schools and colleges working with students at St Brigid's College, Oakgrove Integrated College, St Paul's Primary School, Lisnagelvin, Primary School and Northwest Regional College. Students will explore art techniques inspired by the collection to gain new perspectives on art.
Our travelling art studio will be working with local residents, fostering creativity and providing access to arts inspired by the National Gallery collection at Alley Theatre, Strabane, Guildhall Museum, the Waterside Theatre and Arts Centre and the Millennium Forum.
If you are in the area join us as we bring art and inspiration directly to where people live and learn. Find out more about Greater Shantallow Community Arts.
