Half Term Art Trail
Details: This February half term, we’re inviting the next generation of creatives to come and find fresh inspiration here at Cornwall Museum and Art Gallery. See our amazing art collection in a whole new light, as we team up with Kids in Museums for Art School… In A Trail!
This free spotter trail takes you on a journey around our galleries where you’ll find interesting things to discover at every turn. Each stop invites children and their grownups to approach art in fun new ways.
Let’s talk about art that brings you joy! And together let’s see what happens if you really slow down and look closely… Can we find an image that helps you see the world differently? Which artwork would you most like on your bedroom wall (no, you can’t take one with you!)? Which picture would you most like to live in? Which inspires you the most?
