Family
Adults and children often perceive the world differently. They have a different perspective, literally and figuratively. Similarities and differences can be highlighted by talking about art, and making quick sketches. It’s a great way for both adults and children to have fun looking at and experiencing modern and contemporary art. And, when the new building reopens, special family guided tours (also for grandparents and grandchildren) visiting the Stedelijk will be an even more inspiring and educational family outing! Suitable for children aged 6 and upwards.
Children’s workshops: master classes given by well-known artists exhibiting in the museum, plus workshops by museum docents.
Education programs
Educational programs for school groups offer more activities than just guided tours. There are look-and-do tasks in our studios and workshops too. The Stedelijk also offers special lesson materials for use in the classroom, so that teachers can help their group to prepare their visit, and talk about what they learned afterwards. Our educational programs are given by museum docents, specially selected tour guides, who also help in designing and developing new programs and workshops.
Elementary education
How can you really understand art just by listening? Museum docents in the Stedelijk ask children what they see when they look at works of art, and set all kinds of fun tasks to help children learn to look at art better. Teachers can also request special tours and tasks designed to tie in with themes being taught at school.
