The open kunsthal

In 2024, Kunsthal Aarhus started the project The open kunsthal, which is aimed at high school students in the Aarhus area. The project experiments with the way we talk about and understand contemporary art. High school classes can book free guided tours, courses and workshops in the kunsthal from August and throughout the year. The project is currently scheduled to run for the rest of 2024.

  • Guided tour: customized dialogue-based tour with a focus on an inclusive, investigative and reflective approach to the encounter with art. Duration: 50 min.
  • Course: tailor-made course that through dialog, discussion and small creative tasks will activate students and their creative thinking. Duration: 1 hour.
  • Workshop: exhibition-specific workshop where the exhibition will be opened up through creative tasks and co-creation facilitated by an art educator. Duration: 1 hour and 30 minutes.

The open kunsthal is generously supported by the Danish Arts Foundation.
