Draw. Collaborate. Create.
Make your mark in our Clore Learning Studio with the Chalk Stream. We've transformed the space into a chalk stream. Designed for play alongside the children’s art library of over 400 books and our regular weekend workshops.
Admission to Turner is free. A one-off or regular donation will help support artists to realise exciting new exhibitions and inspire over 300,000 children, young people and adults each year with free access to art and creative activities.
Go make your mark in the stream but before you enter, please read the rules below:
- Help yourself to chalk and draw on anything black – let your creativity flow!
- Collaborate with other artists in the stream.
- Use the stream bridges to move around without stepping on artwork.
- Before leaving, use the brushes provided to dust yourself off and wipe your feet.
Important information:
- Please supervise your children at all times while exploring this space together
- For your enjoyment of Chalk Stream, we may need to limit numbers at busy times.
- Recommended stay time 45 minutes
