Tate Schools Workshops Programme – Call For Artists

 

 

Tate Schools Workshop Programme

Tate London works with new artists every year to ensure the workshops remain live and reflective of current artistic practice.  At the centre of the programme are young people, artists and art. We believe that working alongside artists, surrounded by art works, is an invaluable way of bringing young people closer to the art.

Artists

The Schools and Teachers team are looking for 6 contemporary artists with a committed practice.  We want to work with artists who want to explore art in the galleries through their practice, in the context of regular workshops with school children. Artists develop the workshop sessions through their ideas, in lively dialogue with young people and in discussion with the other artists and the Schools and Teachers team.
