Afternoon for Children
Art can change and shift views on the world. And how do we look at the exhibited works in the museum? Which hanging or installation would be ideal for children? In a series of ‘Afternoons for Children’, we will explore the Kunsthaus Glarus and its exhibitions in a playful way. This program is free of charge.

Guided Tours and School-Class Workshops
Art invites you to comprehend various forms of approaches in thinking and working methods. It asks you to question and reconfigure your own ways of seeing and thinking. Based on the particular exhibition’s thematic content and its accompanied questions, we develop art educational programs for students and teachers who can facilitate access to (contemporary) art and seek to promote independent and critical thinking and actions. The participants are encouraged to formulate and share their attitudes, ideas, and opinions. Informations on the works and pursuing references will supplement these perspectives, which will be expanded through practical art-informed explorations.
Suitable for students of all grades and secondary schools.
The visit lasts 90 minutes in total:
Exhibition tour (50 to 60 minutes), practical work (20 to 30 minutes), and joint conclusion (10 minutes).
The educational program is free of charge for school classes of Canton of Glarus. For guided tours and workshops with school-classes from other Cantons we charge CHF 150. The educational program of Kunsthaus Glarus is supported by Kamm-Bartel-Stiftung and Swisslos Kulturfonds Kanton Glarus.
