The TULCA Education Team is pleased to offer a series of gallery tours tailored for academic groups as part of TULCA 2025. These tours are designed for universities, colleges, post-primary schools, and primary schools, offering an opportunity for students and educators to engage with contemporary art in a meaningful and structured way.

Using Visual Thinking Strategies, the tours facilitate inclusive, learner-centred discussions that prioritize viewer interpretations over traditional information delivery. This approach encourages critical thinking and rich conversations, sparked by the shared experience of exploring art.

For academic groups, worksheets will be provided, tailored to different educational levels. These will include reflective exercises and practical activities that can be taken back to the classroom.

Group bookings for academic institutions are available during weekdays, with tours running every hour from 9am to 4pm. The tour duration is 45 minutes. Advanced booking is required.

Capacity: No minimum, maximum 40 per group (subject to venue capacity)
Age: Late primary school level and above
