But is it art?

There are many possible reasons to arrange an art study trip to London, but here’s one reason I’d put forward. That whenever you look at what’s on, there is always something new and always such a choice.

Which is why Study Trips works directly with schools to plan their own unique school visit to London’s art galleries.

And what’s more, arranging a trip need not be a time-consuming, stressful task. Call us to discuss your ideas and we’ll make all the arrangements to your specific requirements

Here’s a small selection of current and forthcoming exhibitions:

The ‘must see’ Barbara Hepworth exhibition of the year opens at the Tate Britain from the 24th June. The first major show dedicated to a prominent British sculptor for nearly 50 years.

Running at the moment there is “Inventing Impressionism” at the National, “Magnificent Obsessions (the artist as collector)” at the Barbican, and “Sculpture Victorious” at Tate Britain.

Meanwhile there is “Abstraction and the Sublime” at Tate Modern, and (from 15th March) the launch of the new Christina Mackie work at Tate Britain.

If you want something particularly different, the Saatchi Gallery has an exhibition of representational 1:1 scale bronze sculptures by Greg Forrest which includes his Stanley Cup Washing Machine, a Drum Kit and a piece replicating the instruments used by the late Keith Moon, former drummer of The Who.

Of course, London’s galleries have first-class learning resources to enrich the experience, from interactive workshops, guided tours and classroom activities led by gallery educators.

In short, everything is there for you to choose – you simply tell us what you want and we’ll organise the event for you.

And if you are staying for a night or two we can add a visit to a suitable West End show and a meal at Planet Hollywood.
