Learning

Offered in the context of a programme of international contemporary art, CAST’s learning activities range from opportunities for young people to engage directly with artists through talks, screenings, workshops and studio visits, to Art Lab sessions for primary schools, free holiday workshops, and a regular Saturday Art Club for young people aged eleven to sixteen. We also offer online learning resources for children and families, which can be accessed here.

Schools Programme

CAST provides ambitious creative learning workshops for primary schools – a programme of half-day or full-day ‘Arts Lab’ workshops – all of which involve active learning across a range of disciplines, as well as hands-on activity.
