April School Holiday Programme

Light up these April school holidays! 

Join us as we experiment with the magic of light these April school holidays. Explore a wide variety of activities inspired by the exhibition Light from Tate: 1700s to Now in paid workshops delivered by our team of art educators and artists. 

Stop motion short films – Make a stop-motion short film and tell a story with light. 

Light-up creatures – Create your own glowing creature using a mix of new and recycled materials.  

Secret artworks – Learn about different ways to hide secret messages and drawings in an artwork and watch as they are revealed under UV light! 

Cyanotypes – Learn how to make a cyanotype. Place objects on special coated paper and watch as an image magically appears.  

Decorate a lamp shade – Play with paints, fabrics, colours, and patterns to create a unique, light-up piece of art to brighten up your home.
