Celebrating 200 years of the National Gallery
On 10 May 2024 the National Gallery is beginning a year long celebration to mark bringing people and paintings together for 200 years, called NG200.
In 100 Days the celebrations will begin and Create Gloucestershire is taking part.
The idea is to celebrate the past and look forward to the future with a year-long festival of art, creativity and imagination which sets the tone for their third century. There are events in the London gallery and there are also national activities and events planned. We’re involved with the travelling art studio programme called ‘Art Road Trip’ which will bring 200 workshops and learning activities to different communities who otherwise would not have ready access.
Art Road Trip Locations 2024
The Art Road Trip will visit 18 locations across the UK and work with 24 local arts organisations… and Gloucestershire is one of them. Read more about the Art Road Trip here.
Create Glos is working alongside partner organisations from across the county (Forest of Dean Working Group, Cam & Dursley Creatives, GAS Projects, The Venture: White City and Culture Matson) to welcome the travelling art studio to 4 locations in July 2024.
We’ll be updating this page with more info about how and where to take part as soon as we have it. Watch this space.
