Crafty Kids
A fun-filled 1 hour session led by our friendly Early Years specialist, Steph. Each session is based around a theme found in the artworks, such as colour, texture, line and animals. Best suited to 2 - 5 year olds but younger siblings and older Home Educated children also welcome.

Discover the gallery with your little ones, and support their early development in a fun and relaxed way. In these sessions, families will discover the artworks, get creative with a range of art materials, and explore the gallery together. There'll be stories, songs, and fun creative activities - all designed to actively engage pre-schoolers with the gallery.

We'll gather for stories and singing. No need to sit still for long though - we'll be going exploring, doing treasure hunts around the gallery, and playing creatively to help us discover the artworks on display. At each session you'll make something to take home, using a wide range of art materials, including ones that the children may not have tried before.

After the session, please enjoy the gallery at your leisure. We provide space for families to enjoy a packed lunch. If you want a cafe, the nearest is at Gateshead Central Library, just along the street.
