National Galleries of Scotland would like to invite teachers and educators for a guided tour of The Nation//Live exhibition at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery on Wednesday 22 January 2014 @ 5.15 – 7pm.

The Nation//Live has been developed with communities across Scotland in conjunction with contemporary artists and filmmakers, exploring key moments in Scotland’s history through artworks from the national collection. The project was split into five regional encounters: Work in Clydebank, Union in Inverness, Faith on the Isle of Skye, Civil War in Dumfries and Galloway and Roots with migrants living across Scotland. NGS would like explore how the outcomes from this project could be of use to teachers of art, citizenship and history.

Please email Joanna Mawdsley, Schools Education Officer jmawdsley@nationalgalleries.org for more information or if you would like to attend.
