School Programs

Come to the Barnes, or we’ll come to you. Our programs will nourish your students’ imaginations and serve your curricular goals.

The Barnes uses art to inspire creativity and connections for students of all ages. Our virtual gallery, featuring a range of ages, schools, and styles, is updated regularly. Learn more and submit work for consideration today.

Early Learner Summer Pods

Through the Early Learner Summer Pods program, the Barnes serves children five and under and their families with supplemental early childhood education programs that promote inquiry and provide sensory-based experiences. This year, we continued our partnership with the Cambodian Association of Greater Philadelphia, a community-based organization serving communities across North and South Philadelphia. Through the Barnes Pods, children explored the theme of conservation through color, material, and storytelling. We hope you enjoy these imaginative responses to their experiences!
