Hosted by renowned artist Sarah Graham, The Superpower of Looking’s Art Adventure will explore different artworks and invite pupils to interpret, negotiate and make meaning from the images presented to them.

Signing up in advance, teachers receive free learning materials and videos to guide the lesson which will take pupils on an Art Adventure. Pupils will then be tasked with their own project - taking inspiration from the galleries’ artworks and the environment around them to create a collage that celebrates their local area.

Schools can learn more about The Superpower of Looking and sign up for the Art Adventure here: artuk.org/learn/virtual-visit.
