Art Education

Art Education ― alive and diverse

We want to rouse interest and generate excitement for contemporary art in children, teenagers, adults, and families! For this exact purpose, the art education department of the Kunstpalais offers a diversified accompanying program for each of our exhibitions—depending on the occasion, exhibition, and content of the art.

Our extensive program includes guided tours, art talks, practical workshops, lectures, artists’ workshops, movie nights, and activities for all visitors from age 0 to 100. Targeted programs, interactive and open structures allow for a diverse approach to art and adjustments to the individual’s needs.
For educational institutions like schools, kindergartens, day care centers, and study groups the educational department of the Kunstpalais develops guided tours and workshops for each exhibition that are coordinated with the individual syllabus. This way the contact between contemporary art and school is facilitated.
Do you have any suggestions or specific ideas for your own projects at Kunstpalais? We are looking forward to hearing your ideas and wishes.  
Gladly we will introduce you to our different programs and we are looking forward to hearing your questions and seeing you registrations! In our event calendar, you can check when an event will take place.
Children’s Birthday Parties

Are you looking for a very special format for your child's birthday? Then celebrate with their friends and siblings at a special art party at the Kunstpalais!

The current exhibitions will be explored in a playful way under the guidance of an art educator. Together, we will take a close look at the works of art on display. Inspired by what we see, we will then head to the Kunstpalais studio. Here we will create our own works of art to our hearts' content, which you can of course take home with you!

We always offer different workshop themes to match the current exhibitions. The birthday child can of course choose the theme themselves! Parents are responsible for providing food and drinks – you are welcome to bring a birthday cake and drinks. All information can be found in the download. If you have any further questions about the schedule, times, and themes, please do not hesitate to contact us!

Children's birthday parties can be requested on all weekdays during the current exhibitions. Unfortunately, we cannot offer any dates during renovation periods.

From October 12 to November 9, 2025 the Kunstverein Erlangen will be our guest. During this period, we will not be offering children's birthday parties. On November 28, 2025, we will open our new exhibitions by Melanie Bonajo and Andrej Dubravsky and look forward to receiving your inquiries.
