Guided Tours and Workshops
We offer guided tours and workshops for school classes and kindergarten groups tailored to age groups and teaching subjects. The 50-minute guided tours are an opportunity to generate a discussion about the works of art in the exhibition rooms. The combination of guided tour and workshop offers creative activities in the studio after the tour and allows the children to make their own works of art. On request, the tours can be booked weekdays (except Tuesdays) at every full hour. Available in German, English, French, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Ukrainian, and Polish.
