Schools at the Fitz

During the pandemic we have been hard at work, designing, creating and building new resources for schools to use.

Try our new activities - discover amazing artworks, browse for ideas, watch films about our collection, or book a session with us for your school. All of these are now on a new website that we have made, have a look, tell us what you think.

What will you discover today? Let's find out!
