Hospital Schools

The National Portrait Gallery delivers a wide range of innovative and popular programmes linked to the National Curriculum.

These free practical sessions explore Pose, Character, Expression and Symbols in portraiture using our Collection and temporary exhibitions such as Pop Art. Please contact us if you would like to make a booking.

Case Study
Pop Art Project
In autumn 2007 the Gallery embarked on a year-long outreach project to work with 4 hospital schools, using the Gallery’s Pop Art Portraits exhibition as a starting point. In addition to practical workshops the Gallery developed a toolkit to disseminate the methods used and challenges faced during the project.
