The National Galleries of Scotland is an immensely valuable resource for students and tutors in further and higher education. In addition to an art collection of international quality and first-rate temporary exhibitions, we also have specialist:

  • art archives
  • libraries
  • print rooms
  • online activities

These can be of great use for independent learning.

We can offer the following facilities to students and tutors in higher and further education:

  • a dynamic talks and lectures programme relating to the collection and temporary exhibitions
  • academic conferences, study days and courses relating to exhibitions and displays
  • specialist film screenings on art and artists
  • special events for trainee teachers
  • guided and self-guided tours of the collection (please note we have to charge HEIs and FEIs for guided tours)
  • reduced-price entry to temporary exhibitions (two weeks’ notice required)

We are keen to facilitate on-site teaching and are always open to new ideas for educational partnerships.
