THE EDUCATION PROJECT

The Education project formed a very significant component of the D O Hill Bicentenary Festival. The project was primarily devised to increase advocacy and understanding of the work of Hill and Adamson to schools and the general public, as the Festival provided a unique opportunity to develop a wide-ranging programme that included resources for schools and activities and workshops linked to exhibitions and collections.

The Resource Pack for Schools is available as a PDF file (350k).
