This short guide illustrates the things that should be considered when putting together activities that take place at school open evenings and similar functions.

Giving studio space to an artist in residence who may work with groups of children. Inviting artists and others into the school to give occasional talks, lectures or demonstrations.

A variety of different activities have been seen in schools and colleges, where other MRATs may not fit.

Visits to art galleries, museums, exhibitions, studios of professional artists and similar locations. Visits off the school site in order to create works of art in a different environment.
