Overview

On now Permanent access

A family-friendly guided children's tour of the permanent collection at the National Gallery in Trafalgar Square, covering several centuries of European painting.

The National Gallery is a gallery at Trafalgar Square, and this children's tour takes young visitors through its collection with a guide. The tour covers more than seven centuries of art, and the guide shares the stories behind some of the best-known paintings in the building.

During the visit, children are shown fine details of selected works at close range, so they can look at brushwork and small features that are hard to see from a distance. Activities include sketching and hands-on drawing tasks inspired by the paintings on view.

The tour is designed for families, who move through the rooms at their own pace and can take time to look at the works together. It suits children who enjoy stories and who like to draw as well as look.
