Education

Bergen Art Museum has well crafted educational facilities and programs designed to provide visitors of all ages with stimulating and inspiring art experiences.

Bergen Art Museum offers a broad range of educational programs and gives presentations of both permanent and temporary exhibitions to pre-school, elementary school and secondary school classes. Through The Cultural Rucksack program (a national scheme for professional art and culture in schools in Norway), the museum offers guided tours and art workshops by art historians and artists, which are adapted to the curriculum of the Norwegian school system.

In recent years the museum has made a considerable investment in digital workshops with advanced computer programs. Bergen Art Museum also provides an educational program that tours Hordaland County as well as the Internet programs www.st.-ART.no and www.ikast.no, which are available to users nationwide.

Tours both must be reserved in advance. School classes touring the museum independently are also asked to make arrangements in advance.
