The Education Department at the National Galleries of Scotland offers a range of educational events and activities for adult learners.

From lunchtime lectures and themed tours to practical workshops and academic conferences, our adult-learning programme aims to promote knowledge of the national art collection and encourage use of the Galleries as an educational resource.

Consult our What's On Calendar for information about forthcoming events.

Adults are invited to enter our annual Inspired? Get Writing! Creative Writing Competition for a chance to read your poem at the National Gallery of Scotland or see it published in the Scotsman newspaper.
