The Young People's Programme is dedicated to working with 14 - 21-year-olds outside of school, in a wide variety of ways. All sessions are free and explore aspects of portraiture in exciting and innovative ways, drawing inspiration from the Collection or temporary exhibitions.

• Sunday Sessions are on the first Sunday of the month
• Holiday workshops take place over two or three days, often culminating in a performance or private view
• Specific resources are available for young people
• Special taster sessions can be arranged for groups from youth organisations in Camden, Lambeth, Southwark and Westminster
