Education Resources
Heide offers online Education Kits to accompany our major exhibitions. These kits are supplementary documents that include artist and exhibition information, colour reproductions of key artworks and exhibition-related questions and activities tailored to the VELS curriculum.
If you are planning to bring your students to Heide to see one of our exhibitions, we recommend that you use a complementary Education Kit as a preliminary and/or follow-up tool.
Heide Store, currently located in the Heide I and Heide III buildings, stocks a comprehensive range of art books, exhibition catalogues and postcards that make great resources for school libraries.
Many of Heide’s past Education Kits are also available for download as a resource for teachers.
