Families

Come and explore the Gallery and Sculpture Park, with activities and trails for families available every day from the Main Reception Desk. Find out more about upcoming family friendly events in our What’s On guide. For more information about visiting the Sainsbury Centre, check out our Visit Us page.

With a different theme each season and links to our collection and exhibitions, our workshops and events offer a unique experience for all family members. Meet our associate artists and volunteer guides, make your own artworks and help us to see the Sainsbury Centre through new eyes.
Our regular programme includes Mini Studio for pre-schoolers, Family Sunday and Family Studio for weekend family fun, and Young Artists’ Studio workshops for ages 7 to 16.

The Sculpture Park is an outdoor space full of fascinating art, architecture and nature. Explore the fields, woods and University of East Anglia broad with children of all ages.

If you aren’t planning a visit, there are lots of other exciting activities in Online Studio, which you can do at home. There are simple ideas for creative play, mini workshops inspired by our collection and a selection of our popular Family Sunday activities to try out for yourself.
