Description

How it works

Within 2 hours, you’ll visit 4 galleries, each with its own art programme. All of them are pre-loved by our local artmate!

Your artmate will introduce you to the ART UNLOCKED Method, our way of looking at art, which brings together art, neuroscience and coaching.

Along the way we’ll connect the dots: how galleries work, how collections begin, what’s trending in the art world, and why contemporary art matters beyond gallery walls.

Who it’s for

It’s for anyone who’s ever been curious about contemporary art. And especially for those who want to explore it but aren’t quite sure where to start. If you’ve ever walked past a gallery and thought “maybe one day” - this is that day.

Good to know before we begin

Expect around 2 hours of walking, looking, talking, surprising yourself, and occasionally questioning everything.

Do not expect it to be an art history lecture, but rather conversations coupled with your own observations.

No prior art knowledge is required. Curiosity is highly recommended.

Disclaimer: You won’t be an art genius at the end (sorry!). But you’ll leave feeling more confident walking into your next exhibition, trusting your own perspective, and noticing how art shapes the way we see the world. That’s where the fun begins!

Every week, on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays
