Families
Summer Exhibition Schools Workshop 2010 Summer at the Royal Academy is a great time to bring the family. Don't miss our Summer Exhibition Gallery Tours
every Sunday in July, a brief introduction for families to the variety of artworks in the world's largest open-submission contemporary art exhibition.
We also offer Family Workshops every Wednesday and Friday from 22 July to 12 August, comprising an introductory tour and hands-on session.
Finally don't forget to ask for your free Art Tray! Designed to bring out the artist in everybody, these free activity trays contain free skechbooks and pencils to create works of art inspired by the Summer Exhibition, as well as Art Detectives, a creative exhibition trail for families to explore together.
